Subject:	What does an exit code of 128 mean?

I'm trying to run a perl program (vcp*) but when given certain data sets, it
dies with exit code 128, and no visible errors (even when run under the perl
debugger).

Does 128 have a special meaning? I recall reading something about that, but
can't find it now.


Max.


*: vcp is Versioned Copy - copies revisions between version control systems.
See CPAN, or http://svn.clkao.org/revml/ for a modified version supporting
subversion as a destination.
