The problem is that the dot is the directory separator on VMS. If you want to have a directory name with a dot in it, you have to escape it, and that only works on some volumes on recent versions of VMS, and Perl support for it is still in progress. It's just a whole lot easier to avoid using dots in directory names. >With that answered, I'll stamp a tentative "VMS compatible, maybe" on it for >the next release (0.58) and then get you guys to try it out. Sounds good, thanks. -- ________________________________________ Craig A. Berry mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] "... getting out of a sonnet is much more difficult than getting in." Brad Leithauser
