    No problem: I come from Pascal, and I make that mistake about once a week. And I've been using perl for more than 6 years now...

    The real error is not to check the result of open and, in general, of all I/O operations, but that I make once a week, too :).

      Upgrade to Perl 5.10.1 at least, or install it from the CPAN, but either way use autodie to prevent that mistake.
