in reply to "no more pepsi" JAPH

Hmm... I run it, but get no output, just a pause as if it were waiting for input.

What did I do wrong?

    I'm not sure. If you cut and paste it, you have to be careful of the line wrappings. In particular, you have to remove the little "+"s prepended to each wrapped line.

    Other than that, my only guess is that it might be a platform issue. What OS and perl version?

      It works fine for me with 5.8.0 but not 5.6.1, on RedHat 9.

      I'm experiencing the same problem on a Suse8.0, perl 5.6.1 (P4, 1.7ghz) box. It loved it.

      I see the same symptoms on 5.6.0/darwin and 5.00503/freebsd.
