Well, I just use `use strict;` to catch my typing errors. And for that, I'll tolerate the rest of its foibles. And I tolerate `use warnings;` for its ability to tell me about undef's. Now, if someone came up with `use taint;`, that might be useful. -- __END__ Just my 0.00000002 million dollars worth, --- Shawn "For the things we have to learn before we can do them, we learn by doing them."
