There is no problem with spaces around the = operator.

Thank you Jean-Pierre for your persistence in regard to my problem. It is very much appreciated. My problem still stands, even with changing the #! line to /bin/bash .

I still get this:


sh-3.1$ ./wordspell testfile
hellio is mispelled. Press Enter to keep spelling, or type a correction here: hello
./wordspell: line 14: [[hello=]]: command not found
./wordspell: line 17: [1]=hello: command not found

Its got something to do with the arrays for sure - i have no idea why tho.

I might be thinking arrays too much like C++ arrays if that helps. lol. Anything is worth a look right?

pod::perldoc::tochecker

Pod::Perldoc::ToChecker(3pm)				 Perl Programmers Reference Guide			      Pod::Perldoc::ToChecker(3pm)

NAME

       Pod::Perldoc::ToChecker - let Perldoc check Pod for errors

SYNOPSIS

	 % perldoc -o checker SomeFile.pod
	 No Pod errors in SomeFile.pod
	 (or an error report)

DESCRIPTION

       This is a "plug-in" class that allows Perldoc to use Pod::Simple::Checker as a "formatter" class (or if that is not available, then
       Pod::Checker), to check for errors in a given Pod file.

       This is actually a Pod::Simple::Checker (or Pod::Checker) subclass, and inherits all its options.
