title: Why does my Perl script exit with 137?
body: <p>Is there a way to eliminate a warning (exit code 137) in perl? I am running a Perl script on linux within another shell script. This Perl script exits with a warning and exit code 137. I could not pinpoint what exit code 137 stands for. </p>
  
  <p>What is the best way to avoid this warning? I tried "no warnings" in the script and I have an exit 0 at the end of my Perl script as well.</p>
