I am working on learning perl, and have perl 5.00x that is in the base system when I installed 4.10-Release. Since most of the learning materials out there are based on later verisions esp since 5.6.x some of the features arent in this older version. I am considering upgrading to 5.8.5 via ports, but, dont know if that will break anything. Just being cautious... --Karl _________________________________________________________________ Don’t just search. Find.
