Perl4 had the -w switch, and back then everything fit in one manpage (man perl) so that's where you need to look. You can still download perl4.036 from CPAN and just look for yourself. You don't have to actually install it :) -- brian d foy <brian@stonehenge.com>	[reply]

I think -w is usable for all perl 5 versions. Not sure about perl 4 though :-) "What should it profit a man, if he should win a flame war, yet lose his cool?"	[reply]
