no it doesn't. if you put it inside an eval{}, it won't quit. consider:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
my $reg = shift;
while(<STDIN>){
chomp;
eval{
print "$_\n" if(/$reg/o);
}
print "ERROR: $@\n" if($@);
}
__END__
again, this is just an example of what you can do. you should consider
quoting your $reg also
