What's the difference between physical incapability, or practical restrictions? Or perhaps, an embeded application that doesn't reveal the api must ship with the perl documentation? You are being a bit fascist here. I want documentation as much as the next person. But the machines that I distribute the application on, have _NO_ direct human users. They are purely application servers. I don't want a minimum stripped down perl installation that will get my job done. <chaim> -- Chaim Frenkel Nonlinear Knowledge, Inc.
