I am opening a file witht he following command:

open (LOGFILE, "100.txt");

then wanting to manipulate this line by line.. I know I want to stop
manipulating when I reach a line in the file with a series of dashes, such
as:

------------------------------------------

Right now I am doing:

$oneline = <LOGFILE>;
while ( $oneline =~ /(-{3,})/ )
{
        # process one line
        $oneline = <LOGFILE>;
}

------------------------------------------

Which is not working... I get an error of use of uninitialized value at line
28, which is the while line above.... I am confused.. $oneline is
initalized. I call open in the main function, and then enter this function,
but I assume that the file handle is still valid and active, is that a
falllacy?

Thanks for any and all help!

Matt
