Re: negative stat value

Just a quick suggestion. BTW, I don't have any files that large to test, so you might encounter the same problem with this. But give it a try:

my $size = -s "filename";
print $size;

Unfortunately, this does retrieve the same results as STAT, but a positive is I found another way to get a files size. Does anyone know if stat uses a Binary or ASCII representation?	[reply]
