Re^5: What is $::| ?

You can see form the trailing "|" that you were referencing $main:: and not $main::|, so there's no ground for drawing conclusions about relation between $main::| and $|.

Yeah, I got that in the meantime. Considering that the first version of your node Re^3: What is $::\| ? read "Like the OP said, it's not valid Perl. Are you asking me to speculate if `$\|` and `$main::\|` would be the same if `$main::\|` was valid? Probably. It is the case for `$_` " it appears that it did take even you a second thought to figure out that one needs to write `${'main::\|'}` :)	[reply] [d/l] [select]
