ok this is my delema, i am trying to read from this file using:
read(FILEHANDLE, $buffer, $size);
because the file size will be different every time i try to read it
(stuff gets added to it all the time)i wanted to use a variable to
store the file size, but i dont know how to update that variable
with the size of the file everytime the perl file is ran. so my
question is: Is there a function or method of getting the size of
a file, so that i can store the size in a variable??
thanx in advance,
nate.
