- I'd like to know when (i.e. base revision plus patchlevel) perl
- did get the following $/ behaviour:
-
- $/ = "}\n";
- $perl_function = <FILE>;
-
- The above is trying to read in a single pass a whole perl function.
- It works of course for 4.0 PL35, but I found out that it does not
- work with 3.0 PL44. The answer lies somewhere between....
-
- Thank you.
