Re: [PLUG] OT: Perl question
|
| I am trying to install some software that uses the perl 5 interpreter.
| I don't know any perl, and the program came with an install script that
| downloads, installs and configures the modules it needs to run. There
| was a problem with the script, so the author sent me a new one. Now, I
| am getting the error
| Unrecognized character \xA0 at install.pl line 22.
| As line 22 has nothing unusual in it,
as far you can see, anyway...
| I am wondering whether Perl skips
| comments at the begining of a script in calculating the line number?
no. it counts them all.
| Any ideas what character \xA0 might be?
on my system it looks exactly like a space.
for insight, try:
sed -n 22l install.pl
