From erik@cs.uni-jena.de

Created by erik@cs.uni-jena.de

In perlfaq8 ("How can I capture STDERR from an external command?")
are some lines with "IO​::File->new_tempfile"​:

  local *CATCHOUT = IO​::File->new_tempfile;
  local *CATCHERR = IO​::File->new_tempfile;
 
The correct command is
 
  local *CATCHOUT = IO​::File->new_tmpfile;

("tmp" instead of "temp")

The correct command is

That's right, thanks; I fixed that as change #26802 in the development
tree of perl.
