Oh, I didn't notice that you added `local $/;` to the first snippet too! `local $/; while (<>)` provides error checking (empty file, read error) that `local $/; $_ = <>;` doesn't.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

My fault for leaving the $/ part out originally! Been looking at this code for too long. :( Elda Taluta; Sarks Sark; Ark Arks	[reply]
