I'm at sympatico dot ca not junk.net
Hi,
    I know and I did and I've tried ctl [a-zA-Z] too.  Ctl C followed by
CR gets me out of perl. I've also noted a side issue in that doing ctl
[a-zA-Z] eventually controlls the my printer.  I'm only interested in
signaling to perl that I've ended input into the array.  Since this does
not seem to be a known djgpp issue I guess I'd better look at the perl
sources.

        Regards Ian.
