use autodie; # dies when I/O error occurs
my $file = 'file.txt'; # write literals once so they are easy
# to find and change
my $contents = ''; # holds contents of $file
# use a block to isolate the INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR
{
local $/; # file slurp mode
open my $fh, '<', $file; # three-argument open
$contents = <$fh>; # slurps the whole file into $contents
close $fh; # in case of input error,
# give it a chance to report
}
if( $contents =~ /window/i ){
print "it is present\n";
}
# see `perldoc perlvar` and search for /INPUT_RECORD_SEPARATOR
