#/usr/bin/perl -w
should be
#!/usr/bin/perl -w

You're -w is being ignored because of the missing !.

Thank you, I lost my line during the cut/paste excercise and had to retype it. The -w is equivalent to the `use warnings;` isn't it. I often just leave the #! line out from my win32 scripts. Thank you, Greg W.	[reply] [d/l]

It's not quite the same. `-w` is actually equivalent to `BEGIN { $^W = 1; }`. There biggest difference is that `-w` will affect included modules, whereas `use warnings;` only affects the current scope (block or file).	[reply] [d/l] [select]
