I'm writing a script that requires locking a file before writing to it, and I decided to check CPAN to see if there are any goodies to take care of this for me. A search for 'flock' yielded: module ( dist updated ) ------------------------------------------------------------- IO::File::flock ( IO-File-flock-0.10 26 Apr 2004 ) IO::File::flock ( IO-File-Lockable-0.31 16 Jul 2004 ) IO::LockedFile::Flock ( IO-LockedFile-0.23 20 Feb 2003 ) File::Flock ( File-Flock-104.111901 19 Nov 2004 ) Anyone have any experience with any of the above, and want to recommend one? Incidentally, this is why I think a CPAN wiki would be neat. :) -ofer
