No Andy. I wasn't readimg this, but I did click onto your post that Tom was replying to. --- Look, I have no doubt that you can write a multi-page Perl script in Win32 Perl that plays on Unix (as long as you dont use Unix services/fuctionality and basic stuff like forking. --- They are though for all intents and purposes platform specific. Surely you can write some entirely HTML type script that works cross platform. That doesn't describe the bulk of scripts being created and archived on CPAN. --- For that, in lieu of doing your own research, chose to say I was a liar and "b-sing again". Perhaps you can dig deep as to why I might take offense to that. If you can get there, you'll understand why I launched into a simiar as-hominem retort. --- I have Perl Cookbook someplace around here. I'll try huting it down. If I find it's 'platform agnostic' I'll owe you an apology. --- You though, with a little research can learn that the things I was saying about Activestate Win32 Perl are true. --- Maybe apologies are in order all the way around (both standard apologies and Win32 apologies). <g> -JCJ
