Even without (I tried deleting it in case the bahavior changed in the latest build) the error is the same.

From the discussion a while back on this forum, the return is no more bogus than any other return that's at the natural end anyway.

Hmmmm. When I run:

#! /usr/bin/perl
return 1;
[download]

perl tells me

Can't return outside a subroutine at return.pl line 2
[download]

So I guess the previous discussion was somewhat inaccurate.

Apologies that this is not help in solving your original problem.

As Mr. Muskrat noted above, when do "FILE", or use such a script, perl is just okey dokey about it.



Code is (almost) always untested.
