Blessed Monks:

Maybe I'm missing something but why does

eval {
lines ending in ;
};
 ^
 |
require that?

Everywhere else in Perl like map, if, else, while, given, etc etc, I guess either the last ; is implied (as it is on the last line BEFORE the "}" , or maybe something is different about eval? I use it so infrequently, I inadvertently forget it..

TY , Blessed Be!
