The Or die "...."; is force of habit, hard to teach and old dog new tricks :) I just found out about Fatal this past week and started to use it...

The idea behind Fatal is that you can omit the "or die..." stuff from your open() call. So why aren't you doing that? 2. Fatal appears to be relatively magical in what it does and that's likely to be confusing the warnings system. I suggest you: A: disable the warning at the appropriate scope: no warnings 'once'; B: refer the spurious warning to the maintainer of the Fatal module for possible action. You're most likely to get results if you can propose a patch to Fatal that would stop the warning from happening. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
