in reply to Can't find EOM before end of file

dws said it perfectly.

A good habit to ensure that there is a "\n" at the end of EOM, even if it's the last line in the program: Always add a comment at the end of the program, like so:

print <<EOM; <p>something <p>more of something EOM # that's all.

My text editor on windows never writes a line-break after the last line - took me ages to find that out.
