No. use strict; shouldn't stop everything from printing...and it doesn't on my system.

I suspect that you are running your script from the Explorer by double clicking and the reason you see no output is because you have a compilation error that prevents your script reaching the sleep statement and so the window is disappearing before you have a chance to read the error messages produced.

I would advise you to start using the command line, at least for testing your scripts.

If I understand your problem, I can solve it! Of course, the same can be said for you.

    Hmm, I am using the command line. I'll keep playing. I have a long way to go and that is the least of my problems. I think I'll go order a book;)
