in reply to Warnings vs. Errors

Why? It sounds like you want to ignore warnings without investigating or fixing them. If that's case, why don't you just turn them off? If that's not the case, do you really need Perl to tell you whether or not the program ended afterwards?

You'd be better off checking the error code anyway. Doesn't the IDE you say you're using display the process's error code?

    Hmm, that's a good point. I suppose I want to get the warnings till I can determine if they can be safely ignored or not.

    In another case, I had a functioning script running on a cron job that never had problems. I got a message from cron and someone asked me if it was an error or warning and I didn't know.
