Hi perlers,

I am using strawberry portable for windows.

In my tutorial they told my to read strings from keyboard ( [at] array = <STDIN>)
and told my to press ctrl+Z for the file end. But pressing ctrl+Z doesn't do
anything. Can someone tell my what I have to do to simulate the EOF? Ctrl+D
works for ending the file, but the hole script crashes, too.

Ctrl+Z works for me in Windows (XP) from the Command Prompt
application. Initially pressing Ctrl+Z only adds the character to the
line (appearing as ^Z). If I then press enter then it is sent and
works. Perhaps the confusion is that the character isn't immediately
sent as it is in UNIX-like shells?
