G:\perls>perldoc perldelta NAME perldelta - what's new for perl v5.6.x DESCRIPTION This document describes differences between the 5.005 release and +the 5.6.2 release. Summary of changes between 5.6.1 and 5.6.2 The 5.6.2 release is aimed at providing only a minimal update to p +erl 5.6.1, which wasn't being compatible with some of the newest compi +lers (most notably gcc 3.x), libraries and operating systems that have appeared since 5.6.1 was released.
