Nice trick, works fine in unix, but would probably break comptibiliy with
win23 platforms, unless the $$ is available.
For Hans: $$ returns the curent process Id in unix, which is guaranteed to
be unique. Of-course, Windows has process Id's but I don't know if you can
get to them from within perl. I wouldn't be surprised if that worked. Since
perl borrows much from shell-script programming, $$ is probably an existing
variable in perl which does the job.
Gilbert.
