John M. Dlugosz
The loader cares about the last statement executed, and that will be the main-line code. The creation of a sub, even a special one like END, doesn't cause the contents of that sub to be run--your 1 is not seen 'till it's called. END is not called when a module is loaded, but when it's terminated.<P>
In a related thread, the idea of using <code>return 1;</code> at the end of the module was raised, as being clearer.<P>
