Ick... That does make a difference in what to do about the possible confusion. So, if the warning were changed, that would be more like: % perl -lwe '@a[0,2] = (0,2); print "@a $a", "$a", $a' Use of uninitialized value in join/string at -e line 1. Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.)/string at -e line 1. Use of uninitialized value in string at -e line 1. Use of uninitialized value in print at -e line 1. Are there other warnings, besides "Use of uninitialized value", that specify an operator? Perhaps a patch to perldiag that explains this issue would be preferred? Ronald
