That's odd. @{ +shift } should be the same as @{ shift(@_) }. What version of Perl mistook it for @shift?

    well, the arry deref wasn't working so I removed the plus sign just to see if it would do anything. That code - @{ shift } - was mistaken to be @shift. Adding the explicit argument list seemed to work. This is under WinMe, perl 5.8.0. I haven't tried it on Linux yet (frankly, I can't see how this would make a difference but, *shrug* you never know). What did you test on? B/c it seems to work for 2 people and not work for 2...
      I wrote it for Perl 5.005_03 (still on one machine I use), and added 'warnings'. I'll try it on my 5.8.0 on Linux... and it works just fine.

      Unfortunately this isn't correct - I'm using perl 5.6.0 (Darwin) and the code doesn't work although I made the suggested change. Rather strange.
        Well, ln 99 is the line with @{ +shift }, and that's the only array ref on that line. So it HAS to be something with that, given the error message we recieved. *shrug*
