Never mind ... apparently today I'm an idiot... Reading the documentation reveals that -s doesn't return a number. Instead, it indicates whether has nonzero size. If you need to know the file size, you'll have to use a suitable function to read the file size, and then compare it. ...roboticus When your only tool is a hammer, all problems look like your thumb.

Actually it does, at least according to perlfunc and to my experience: `-s File has nonzero size (returns size in bytes).`	[reply]
