I'd like to provide a doc link

If you're storing handles in an array or hash, or in general whenever you're using any expression more complex than a bareword handle or a plain, unsubscripted scalar variable to retrieve it, you will have to use a block returning the filehandle value instead, in which case the LIST may not be omitted

Thanks for that reference. I had indeed read that document earlier today but suddenly felt drained of all energy when I read the phrase "bareword handle" which meant nothing to me. I must learn more. I must learn more. I must learn more. Thrash. Whip. I am a member of Opus Doh. :-D	[reply]
