main::(-e:1): 1 DB<1> print DB::pager |less So maybe it's the missting fully qualified name. Shouldn't perl print some diagnostics if the pager cannot be found? BTW: I tried (not sure which configuration I had reported the problem): mailgate:/var/tmp # PATH= /usr/bin/perl -de 1 Loading DB routines from perl5db.pl version 1.27 Editor support available. Enter h or `h h' for help, or `man perldebug' for more help. main::(-e:1): 1 DB<1> @a=(1 .. 17) DB<2> x @a 0 1 1 2 2 3 3 4 4 5 5 6 6 7 7 8 8 9 9 10 10 11 11 12 12 13 13 14 14 15 15 16 16 17 DB<3> |x @a [1]+ Stopped PATH= /usr/bin/perl -de 1 (Perl seems to hang here) Regards, Ulrich
