Ilya must be referring to Emacs versions. His workhorse version just turned 13 years old: the last Emacs 19 release (19.34b) was September 6, 1996! If he's maintaining his cperl-mode for other users, I wonder what percentage of them are using Emacs 19, ..., 23 (23.1 was released on July 29, 2009). -- Kevin Rodgers Denver, Colorado, USA
