-------------- @_PTM VARIABLE -------------- ----------- DESCRIPTION ----------- DO NOT USE THIS VARIABLE @_PTM, though being a publicly accessible variable, should NEVER be modified at run-time. @_PTM stores the Perl version of your non-Perl script code. As your PTM script is parsed, non-Perl sections are stored in the @_PTM array, using $_PTM_POS as an position marker, and calls to print from it are made in the return value of the _PTM() function -- a Perl script to be evaluated. It serves as temporary storage for non-Perl script behind the scenes while the PTM tags are parsed out and is then reinserted, via Perl "print" statements, when everything is ready to be displayed. -------- SEE ALSO -------- VARIABLES $_PTM_POS, $_PTM_PREPROCESS, @_REQUIRE FUNCTIONS _PTM(), _PTM_FILE()
