You can roll your own linked list implementation using array or hash references to maintain linkage. If you're not afarid to write a small module, you can use tie to extend a normal Perl list to a circular list. Or if you're lazy you can go to search.cpan.org and see wether somebody else already wrote some code that does what you need ;-) http://search.cpan.org/~millaway/Tie-Scalar-RingBuffer-0.04/RingBuffer.pm HTH, Thomas -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
