I don't know how Perl does it... but there several ways to get around the 32 bit limit on 32 bit processors, it really isn't all that difficult. It is a significant performance hit compared to using 32 bit values, but if you need to do it, it really isn't that tough. _______________________________________________ ActivePerl mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
