Need Help??

Ah, so $~ isn't set for whichever filehandle is current, but just for the one that is current at the moment. If I change the filehandle with select() I also have to reset $~.

Thanks,

Take care when switching: also `$:` and `$^A` can be affected and `$%`, `$=`, `$-`, and `$^` will change on a `select`. The values might not always be reliable :) YMMV Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn	[reply] [d/l] [select]
