Re: perl -- classic?

Which latest perl is that?  The 5.26.3 version I cited is the latest
version on cygwin, and it's working fine in all the simple tests I
tried (I tried scalar & array contexts for both the chars & pixels
functions).  Do you have perl 5.28 installed?  I see that Term/Size.pm
has a "use vars" line in it:

use vars qw(@EXPORT_OK @ISA $VERSION);

... and since "use vars" looks to have been removed in 5.28, you could
rewrite that line as this:

our (@EXPORT_OK, @ISA, $VERSION);

..wayne..
