a new user and perl-learner, very beginner. I tried to run this this simple program : 

#!/usr/bin/perl-w 
use strict;
$name = "bug";
print "hello there , $name, did you know 1+0", 1+0, "?\n";

---- but I got this : 

BEGIN not safe after errors--compilation aborted at /System/Library/Pe
+rl/5.16/Carp/Heavy.pm line 3.
Compilation failed in require at /Users/Gucci/Downloads/TextMate.app/C
+ontents/SharedSupport/Bundles/Perl.tmbundle/Support/exception_handler
+.pm line 30.

to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
