Just the first 2 bytes are magic, not the semicolon. Someone a while ago told me to use : and make it an unused label but I've never tried it. To fit "MZ() if 0;", I'd have to shorten the do not edit comment. There are only 2 free bytes (as spaces) before the binary escaping heredoc. The binary escaping heredoc must escape bytes 0x3C/60-0x3F/63 so it can not be moved. -- bulk88 ~ bulk88 at hotmail.com --- via perlbug: queue: perl5 status: open https://rt.perl.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=126715Thread Previous | Thread Next
