Re: Processing ARGV

[Erez]

I'd appreciate any perls of wisdom you may have for me.

If you really want to get the goods from Perl, I encourage you to learn the language's idioms.

if ($#ARGV != 0)
{
   foreach( @ARGV )

could be summed as  while (@ARGV) and  print $_ can be written print;.
Perl DWYM in running all those checks for you.
