Re: Signals and Functions w/ perameters

It won't call the function right away if you did

local $SIG{TERM}        = \&UndoStartTime;

instead.

Also, since when can you nest sub statements?

Yer right, I guess - but funny things start happening to the lexical varibles defined inside the outer sub but outside the inner sub - so much so that a warning message exists: `Variable "$x" will not stay shared at ./nested.pl line 9.` [download] So I don't do this, and thought it was in fact not allowed. --Bob Niederman, http://bob-n.com	[reply] [d/l]
