2 more embperl2 oddities - Execute

it.epl:
 
---cut---
hello
---cut---
 
 
(1)
---cut---
[-
print OUT "*";
Execute("it.epl");
print OUT "*";
-]
---cut---
 
Goes into an endless loop.
 
 
(2)
---cut---
*[- Execute("it.epl") -]*
---cut---
 
 
Gives the following output:
---cut---
*hello
 
*
---cut---
 
I.e. it appends a newline to the file that has been executed.
 
Cheers

This is a bug in Embperl

That's like Embperl 1 does it, it always used to add a newline to the end of
all Executed files. Embperl does the same, but I thinking about removeing
the extra newline. Does the extra newline cause any problems ?
