They never complain because Windows doesnt do shebang file type association. Instead it uses the file extension and the registry. The only part that is relevent is the "-w" part which turns on warnings.

My bet is that you are using a relatively recent version of perl (probably an Activestate build) and accordingly you can lose that as well and use the more powerful

use warnings;
instead.

Incidentlly its sort of good form when posting to include a shebang line that should work on most standard *NIX boxes. #!/usr/bin/perl If only to make our *NIX brethren's lives a bit easier... Although i have to admit I usually dont out of forgetfulness.

Oh yeah, its possible that if you are doing CGI stuff that the webserver does know about shebangs, in which case it probably makes sense to include it.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
