    Hmm... Thanks for the feedback. I don't suppose anyone has thought about creating a pragma module that lets you make modifications to find_script's behavior? Or does that come to early in perl execution to be amenable to modification by a pragma. If it could work of course it would be something that could only be usefully used as a -m/-M argument on the perl command line, I would guess.

      There was this one guy, but a rock fell from the sky and crushed him :)

      Hey, my Win32 doesn't croak if there is no execute bit, you can switch to Win32 :D

      No, it doesn't happen too early ... UTSL

        Will wonders never cease??? Something Win32 is good for...

        I don't have time to learn how to make my own pragma to accomplish this, so I'll probably go the make-all-the-scripts-executable route.
