Re: Perl 5.6.1: Problem with CRLF/LF conversions


warum verweißt du ihn auf perl5.8?
ist es nicht wünschenswert, daß perl dateien im text-mode öffnet?
bzw. sie nur genau dann als binär behandelt, wenn man binmode() aufruft?

Please consider to upgrade Perl to version 5.8,
click the 'Exp' radiobutton in setup.exe to load
down and install perl-5.8.0

Then you may play with the new PERLIO features,
please see: perldoc perlio for details.
