It's not very happy on a redhat 9 box:
perl readkeyTest.pl
Foo
Foo
Foo
Foo
Foo
Foo
Foo
Foo
Foo
Foo
Terminated
~/xml mike@tux6202
$ qqqqqqq
~/xml
$ perl -v
This is perl, v5.8.0 built for i386-linux-thread-multi
(with 1 registered patch, see perl -V for more detail)

$ uname -a
Linux tuxXXXX 2.4.20-18.9smp #1 SMP Thu May 29 06:55:05 EDT 2003 i686
+i686 i386 GNU/Linux
It DOES, however, work fine on a Redhat 7.x box with perl 5.6.1, with uname info:
Linux tuxYYY 2.4.18-26.7.xsmp #1 SMP Mon Feb 24 09:37:16 EST 2003 i68

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
