Subject: check of OS is invalid
The method for determining whether or not the Operating System is Unix is completely invalid. At the very least, a Windows machine will also report that the directory '/' exists: C:\>perl -le"print 'yes' if -d '/'" yes C:\>perl -le"print $^O" MSWin32 C:\>perl -v This is perl, v5.8.4 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread

I am no longer accepting any bug reports that don't have patches and tests. The idea behind Open Source Software is that the COMMUNITY of developers contributes to its development. It's very cute that you think you're a developer with a snarky remark. How'd that work out for you?

Uh. Pretty well. I forgot about it, and your entire module, more than 5 years ago. Way to stay current, jackass. On Sat, Sep 3, 2011 at 9:32 PM, Nate Wiger via RT < bug-File-Remote@rt.cpan.org> wrote: Show quoted text
