Hi all, first post, so please be nice.

I've got a simple sockets server running

$local = IO::Socket::INET->new(Proto=>"tcp", LocalPort=>"23", Listen=>"1")
or die "Can't open Socket\n";

$remote = $local->accept;

$remote->autoflush(1);


I'm reading input like so...

while (<$remote>) {print;
                        }
close $local, $remote

A hardware device connects to the socket and sends characters (barcode
scanner output, variable length, alphanumeric) followed by '/r'

My (very basic) understanding is that if it used '/r/n' my code would work.

I don't have much control over the hardware side of things.

And as you can probably see I'm not too clued up on the software side of
things.
