in thread print (...) interpreted as function

Read the weekly summaries on use Perl if you want to know what's going on.

Exactly. I didn't post it here to let people know what's going on on p5p. That's what mailinglists and archives are for. Nor did I post a patch. I was hoping it would spark some discussion about whether the it's a good idea to remove the warning or not. Unfortunally, all it did start was a meta-discussion.

    Next time, please let us know your intentions. This can be as simple as "I'd like to know what you think about this issue", as long as it's not in the re-post itself, but in the text around it. I thought you were just drawing attention to your plea by posting it in several locations.

    Juerd # { site => 'juerd.nl', plp_site => 'plp.juerd.nl', do_not_use => 'spamtrap' }

      I thought that was obvious from the fact it was posted in Meditations and not Perl News.

        Howdy!

        Your intentions were a bit too obtuse. It clearly was not obvious to the rest of us (certianly not to me).

        yours,

      I would add something insightful in this reply but you didn't specifically ask for my opinion, so I won't. Please let me know in your post next time what your intentions are.

      Some things are implied :)

        I wonder why posts like yours are always done by anonymous cowards. My guess is that you DO have an account and fear loss of XP.
