Correction - the "\n" doesn't suppress the information because it
comes after the "$!" variable - it has nothing to do with it. This
behaviour is due to "die". From "perldoc -f die":
If the last element of LIST does not end in a newline,
the current script line number and
input line number (if any) are also printed, and a
newline is supplied.
Hope this helps,,
