Quoth Jerry Krinock <jerry@xxxxxxxx>:
Thank you, Ben. I used {*::STDLOG} and it works now.
But what is that {*FILEHANDLE} syntax mean to the perl interpreter? I
thought that there is no "*" operator in perl, and {} is used for code
blocks or hash assignments. Which, if any, perldoc?
*FOO is described in perldata, under 'Typeglobs and Filehandles', and
further elaborated on in perlmod. The print {...} syntax is documented
in perldoc -f print; it applies quite generally to any builtin or method
call that has an 'indirect object' slot. The block is required if you
want to put anything more complicated that a simple scalar there.
