If i just create a new pipe and there's no script (reader) running,
then the program blocks.
If i've got the script running later - it will read 'foo' from the
pipe. However after i kill the script and then
run this program again (it does not matter whether i start the reader
this time, the behavior is identical with either my Perl script
running or stopped) the program can't write and reports an error "Text
file busy"

Do you have to use Dumper on the whole hash?
What's wrong with:
foreach my $key (keys %myhash) {
print FH $key,":",$myhash{$key}, "\n";
}
or even:
foreach my $key (keys %myhash) {
print FH "KEY=",$key,"\n", Dumper($myhash{$key}),"\n";
}

Try it with the YAML module, you may have better luck (and the results
are quite readable). In general as smallpond suggested you may just
have to do it key by key.

I received my post-grad transcripts today. They begin with Jay Goldman and
end with a geometry class from the MN dept of edu in which I appear to have
gotten a D while having gotten an A in the like material from the dept of
math. Ask Carl.

I received my structured prog instruction from the Y in 1988. I would like

Not really.

Use that option, and you rarely have to tinker with shebang lines.

Hi Albert,
I would use the Perl debugger for this.
perl -d script.pl
tracing is available with 'T' and it toggled with 't'.
Run 'perldoc perldebtut' for more info.
Addionally, I believe the Perl profiler has a similar output support.
Have a look at:
http://search.cpan.org/~nwclark/perl-5.8.6/utils/dprofpp.PL
and
http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?Devel::DProf
hope this helps,
Spiros

I think what I want is statically. I can use breakpoints and "T", but
I rather want to run the script completely and then have a debug file
with all the method calls.
