Hi drazen, welcome to the Monastery!
I run Perl in Linux (not linex). I've never encountered a problem with using dots. Why do you think Perl doesn't like them? To help us helping you, please provide more information - e.g. what error do you get, what modules do you use to access the database, etc.

To answer your question - the dot does NOT need to be esaped, within a single or double quoted string. The only case it needs to be escaped is if it is inside a regular expression.
If you can post the relevant line(s) of code, we can better help you identify the issue.
This is not an optical illusion, it just looks like one.

Welcome, your post lacks sufficient details to help us help you. Are you trying to automate sqlplus rather than use DBI/DBD::Oracle? It sounds as though your code is using . which is for string concatenation:
my $foo = 'ba';
my $bar = 'z';
print $foo . $bar;
As others have said it would be better to post the code you are using which shows us the problem, or at least a minimal example which can be used to replicate the problem. How do I post a question effectively? is worth reading if you have not already done so. | [reply]

I guess you made a little typo. IMHO no need to down vote your node as obviously some did. Correct it like this:
<strike>linex</strike> Linux
This will result in linex Linux and satisfy all pedantic brothers and sisters in the monastery.
Update: And you meant platform i guess. Not flatform which has something do with shoes or flat form which describes something geological.
Best regards, Karl
