Hi Adrian,

Just wanted to say thanks. Although it was not my query originally, I found your method worked in the situation I needed, whereas the other methods utilising SIG don't seem to work under ActivePerl on Windows.

Just one tweak: a line before the return to prevent it complaining about uninitialised values:

$string= defined $string ? $string : "No input" ;

Thanks again. :)
