Have you looked at autodie?	[reply]

autodie for IO operations. RaiseError with DBI. XML::Parser: A die call is thrown if a parse error occurs. XML::LibXML will throw an exception if a parsing error occurs. warnings can be elevated to fatals. See perllexwarn. strict will make some risky behaviors an error that won't allow execution to begin. perlrun: Taint mode will throw an exception if it catches you doing unsafe things with tainted input. You can, of course, pepper your code with `or die $!` or `or die "Message..."` There are plenty of other possibilities too, if we knew what you're after. Dave	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Uhm, the default for Perl is to die on error. So, I'm not sure what you are asking.	[reply]
