The other day I was told that I did not have to name a subroutine wanted just because the directions for File::Find used that name for it. I should have seen that from the get go, but I am one for following directions as written, in this case, sub wanted. Armed with this knowledge now, I can do more. I split up a module into two because I thought there was only on way to get the files found. I could go back and reintegrate them, but I decided to keep these modules, well, modular. :)

Then today, I was fiddling around with notepad++ and the colors for Perl, when I decided to see if the .pl file type was on the list. I clicked on it, then its edit button to see what was associated with it. To my chagrin I found that all this time I was typing perl filename.pl could have just been typed filename.pl.

What was your moment where a little thing just popped up and bit you on the toe?
