oops :) But, errrr, why doesn't The Camel (2nd edition) mention this? under the function? cLive ;-) Update (comment on below) - damn you merlyn, you mean I gotta get a new camel now? Pwththththth! Oh well. Of course, I suppose I could start reading the man pages for once... :)	[reply]

Camel2 was 5.003. This was added in 5.005, if I recall. -- Randal L. Schwartz, Perl hacker	[reply]
