Correct. I use it, because it doesn't work as used with the default setting. > Now I have PERLIO=raw in my general environment and it seems that all perl generated > files now have LF's again (I hate CRLF's). I'll examine if I can use this instead of perlio. The PERLIO variable is a little mystery to me, the problem with CPAN and the cpan shell is that it doesn't work correct if you use no setting, well it works, but I always need to enter 'Enter' twice then, so I tried PERLIO=perlio which works as I'm expecting it, never saw that there are CRLF's in the files (and I don't mind that much as long as it works as it should work). Depending on the editor you use it is annoying to have CRLF or to have no CRLF. > Just by chance I looked at the scripts and man pages from your perl-5.8.0 distro and > voila they also have CRLF's although a perl -V suggests that you have used PERLIO=raw > during buidling. perl -V displays not the buildenvironment, but your settings! > Hmmmmmmmmmmhhh ? I use PERLIO=perlio to run the testsuite because of two errors which occur without this. And I try to avoid using it during building. Since I used a PC from a friend to build the dist version I'm not sure if the environment there is matching my default settings at home. > Summary of my perl5 (revision 5.0 version 8 subversion 0) configuration: > <<< snip >>> [snap] Thank you for this report, Gerrit -- =^..^=
