The warnings pragma is new in Perl 5.6. Under earlier versions you can get much the same effect using the -w command line option.

Running in Perl 5.005, the darn thing always tells me I am wrong, even when I am not! Kind of disheartening! (The use warnings is now commented out) What does this little button do . .`<Click>`; "USER HAS SIGNED OFF FOR THE DAY"	[reply] [d/l]

"Even when I am not" ... could you please explain? `use warnings / -w` spits out what it spits out for a reason. What is it telling you you're doing wrong, and why is what you're doing not wrong? yes, this is a genuine question. Philosophy can be made out of anything. Or less -- Jerry A. Fodor	[reply] [d/l]
