New You're kidding, right?
I haven't dealt with memory juggling
in about 9 years. Went from 'C' to
Perl and never looked back.

Well, not exactly. Sometimes you still
need to code in a certain way to ensure
efficient use of memory, and to make
sure you don't have any leaks.

But you never dance on the stack.

New I do perl scripting not perl programming :-)
and since I was a tadpole I was taught to explicitly get an adress space and make sure the OS knew I was done with it when I was finished. Since scripting batches is quite different from programming I never bothered to use bounded memory chunks. Remember I program in self defence cleaning up after programmers, I wouldnt call myself a programmer.
thanx,
bill
