#!/usr/bin/perl --
use strict;
use warnings;

Wrong. -w shebang option is alive and well at least in Perl 5.10. And yes this is supported on Windows (not the path), but the -w option just like I said. Update: For folks that didn't read the previous: `#!/usr/bin/perl -w use strict;` [download] should be almost like a mantra on Unix or on Windows!	[reply] [d/l]

What's wrong with -w and $^W -w is dead, long live warnings	[reply]

Yes -w can cast a fairly "wide net". But I don't want code running out there that generates warnings without at least understanding what each warning means and how each warning comes about. That thinking leads to a development process that eliminates the warnings. I just haven't found a situation where a run time error didn't matter in some way.	[reply]
