Not certain what your issue is. Perhaps the output is being overwritten by your prompt. Try ending the print with a newline.

`perl -v This is perl, v5.8.8 built for PA-RISC2.0` [download] What version of perl are you using? Also, is this part of a larger script (perhaps including `use strict; use warnings;`), or have you tried running this snippet as a standalone script? --MidLifeXis	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Nope, still doesn't work. I am getting a 'Use of uninitialized value in print' Maybe something else I am forgetting ?	[reply]
