Hello haukex,

Thank you for the explicit analysis on this case I had no idea.

One last question though. How do you know about all these rules and problems that they come up on all these commands? I mean by seeing the code or knowing by experience? I have read all the links that afoken provided and I was able to understand specifically what you mean but I am wondering how some of you know so deep regarding the commands. If someone would like to known more how he/she can learn that much?

Correct me if I am wrong, but qw explicitly converts the strings inside the parenthesis to a list of strings right? I am confused about this part. If I come across a similar case I should explicitly define the list of commands or I can use qw?

Thanks in advance for your time and effort.
