[MacPerl] Interesting little artifact with HTML::Template



Y'all,

   So I was working a website using HTML::Template and I had hardest 
time getting it to work.  I was doing the sample straight out of the 
documentation, and I kept getting errors on the init routine.  It 
said my template file wasn't available (file not found.)   After much 
head-banging I finally found that the problem was that my perl script 
file was in MSDOS format.

   Ick.

   I was using BBEdit to edit the thing, and it doesn't really care 
which format the file is in, it will still do it's job.  I'm 
surprised that the perl sytax checker/interpreter didn't start 
griping earlier.

   Anyway, just though I'd pass that along.
