    C'mon, GrandFather! Be helpful! perl.j obviously wants us to show him how. ;-)

    C:\>perl -e while(1){}
      So I just run that exactly as written? Or do I have to add something to it?
      --perl.j

        What do you think that program will do? If you want it to do something different, you'll have to add something different to it.

        What are you trying to do? This is an example of XYZ Questions.

        So I just run that exactly as written?

        Yep.

        Or do I have to add something to it?

        Nope. The program meets the design specification exactly, just as it is.

        I think there should be something to mention which Script to run as there may be couple of scripts on the PC.
