Thanks, I'll try the new version.

And I don't think you're missing anything... hope I didn't make you spin too many cycles on that.

As I said it was a curiosity: A way to give $_ a 'pretty name' in a for or while loop. You're saying it's already the same to do:

for $line (<DATA>) {} # or for alias $line (<DATA>) {}

Ok. /shrug. I naively saw the named subroutine arguments as roughly the same thing. I am enlightened. =)
