Checked your other posts from the last couple of days, Hm...your tone is alwasy so feverish. Are you a monk? or a combatant?

This is not the first time, you see features SPECIFIED in document, but not implemented. One simple example: alarm is not implemented on win32, even in perl 5.8, but alarm is still documented, and it is never stated anywhere in doc that alarm actually does not work on win32.

This does not mean that people can not discuss, and make themselves ready for the future.

I pray for PEACE.
