I read your reply below. It is an error I have never encountered myself but it does look like the issue: `for ( qw( This is new to me ) ) { print "$_\n"; open(PIPE, "dir\|") or die $!; while (<PIPE>) { # <--- This is the line that the error points to print $_; } } __DATA__ This Modification of a read-only value attempted at script line 4.` [download] Learn something every day.
