As I've said in response to your other comments , I was trying to ease people to new Perl into all the system vars. But the net result is that I've covered too many concepts into one intro tutorial and confused matters. I need to put a bit more time into these tutorials. Thanks again for the comments. Agreed.

I'm not just trying to make it "shorter". I'm tryiing to show you "native Perl", not some broken combination of things you think you know. Again, rather than doing this the long way, your program is equivalent to:

while () {
print “$.: $_”;
}
