Hi all,
I have a very simple script
There's also a great command line tool by Mark Russinovich (which is easy to
launch from a perl script) called pskill (you can get it at

On XP (and I think on 2000) there are standard command-line tools for

Both are normally installed in c:\windows\system32

Its last what you are looking for. This will break out of the inner-most
loop. Optionally, you can put a label at the start of your loop and exit it by
name, like:
my $foo = 0;
OUTER: while (1) {
INNER: while (1) {
$foo++;
if ($foo 1) last INNER;
}
}

OK, I thought perhaps using the FileHandle module would help, I rewrote the script in
the fashion below. And it remains limited to 3197 using the Cygwin shell or 2045
using cmd.exe. I _assume_ the issue is something to do with perl being an interpreted
language and an environment variable??
hi..
using linux. when i do perl foo.pl everything works ok. when i do
./foo.pl i get errors.. i've set the exe bit chmod 775 foo.pl...
any idea as to what's going on...
thanks

always be:

IMHO you probably wouldn't gain any significant performance here even if
you succeeded in the syntax you are looking for because you still have
to do a check for each iteration of the loop.
The only thing else I can think of
Thanks anyway Tim,
Performance isn't really what I'm going for, just simpler code.
For the past 4 years, I've been coding to get the job done, no matter
how many lines it takes or how ugly it is to read, as long as it works
that's fine. But recently you guys have shown me how to simplify
@a = (1,2,3,4,5);
for $x (@a)
{
if($x==3){next;}
print $x\n;

If clear code is what you want, you won't get it using a 'next' as some
have suggested. A 'next' syntactically looks like any other line, and
is therefore not easily noticed as part of the control flow.
