So we must split it to set $debug. -- Francois Gouget fgouget(a)codeweavers.com Index: lib/Locale/Po4a/Sgml.pm =================================================================== RCS file: /cvsroot/po4a/po4a/lib/Locale/Po4a/Sgml.pm,v retrieving revision 1.55 diff -u -p -r1.55 Sgml.pm --- lib/Locale/Po4a/Sgml.pm 21 May 2005 18:42:21 -0000 1.55 +++ lib/Locale/Po4a/Sgml.pm 24 May 2005 11:47:01 -0000 @@ -217,7 +217,7 @@ sub initialize { } } if ($options{'debug'}) { - foreach ($options{'debug'}) { + foreach (split /\s+/, $options{'debug'}) { $debug{$_} = 1; } }
