[Bug 583253] Re: terminal freezes by typing "perl"
Hello! This is not a bug in gnome-terminal, this is the way perl works. When you run "perl" without argument, it will execute what's it is receiving on it's standard input (your keyboard). You can try this: * run "perl" * (now the cursor is on the next line) * type "print "hello world\n";" * hit "enter" * hit "CTRL+D" * (now perls says "hello world" and exits) Hope this helps ** Changed in: ubuntu Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/583253 Title: terminal freezes by typing "perl" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/583253/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I tried to debug "perl" with "perl -d" and it stops with this: --- $ perl -d Loading DB routines from perl5db.pl version 1.32 Editor support available.
