you do believe that my $str = "..."; chop $str modifies the lexical Yes, with explicit passing of a lexical, it is easy to understand how it is done; and if the compiler "knows" about `chop` (as a 'builtin' function), I can understand now how this work for this case. I wonder whether it would also be possible to write a user defined sub which, when called without parameters, acts on `$_` even if it was lexically declared. I don't see how this can be done... -- Ronald Fischer <ynnor@mm.st>	[reply] [d/l] [select]

I now see that you meant the case `my $_; # lexical declared in outer scope sub f { # $_ used here.... }` [download] Sorry for my misunderstanding. But in this case, I don't see why my original code would not work for this case? -- Ronald Fischer <ynnor@mm.st>	[reply] [d/l]

What do you mean? `$_ = 1; my $_ = 6; sub ford { $_ .= 6; }; warn $_; warn ford(); warn $_; warn $::_; __END__ 6 at - line 4. 66 at - line 5. 66 at - line 6. 1 at - line 7.` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
