in reply to luke_repwalker.pl

I tried to run this and I got: 
syntax error at luke_repwalker.pl line 165, near "} foreach "
syntax error at luke_repwalker.pl line 263, near ") foreach "
syntax error at luke_repwalker.pl line 263, near "})"

The lines look fine to me, but I'm still a basic perl user: 
165 : $hnewreps->{$_}->{'last'} = $holdreps->{$_}->{'rep'} foreach (@c
+hangednodes);
263 : $linelen = max ($linelen, length ($nodes->{$_}->{'title'})) fore
+ach (@{$_->{'array'}});

I thought maybe my older version of Perl (5.00404) might not be able to handle the foreach after the statement. Maybe? Is there some other problem I might have? Thanks for the help. Greg

    You've got it. That syntax was introduced later.

    Just change them to 

        foreach VAR (LIST) BLOCK

    format.
