I Must have some crazy silly mistake in my code or my understanding. I don't quite get my expected output from the following very short script. 

### die.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict; use warnings;
$SIG{__DIE__} = sub { print "In die: '@_'"; };

print "Hello!\n";
die "Hi";
print "Goodbye!\n";

### Result:
[duelafn@teckla]$ ./die.pl 
Hello!
In die: 'Hi at ./die.pl line 6.
Hi at ./die.pl line 6.
'[duelafn@teckla]$

Two things did not happen as expected. First, I expected execution to continue to print "Goodbye!\n";. Second, I don't get where the double message is coming from.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Update: Missed the inability to cheat death. Thanks! Any thoughts on the double message? - both messages appear between my single quotes!

Update 2: Nevermind, figured out the double message. Quotes are in the right place if I disable buffering $| = 1. Thanks all!

Good Day,
    Dean
