Ok here  go's ,  I'm just starting to Learn Perl  and it's a very slow
process. 

I have this script the calculates the sum  a bunch of  numbers and prints
the final number to file, but my problem is I would like the number to have
a floating  $sign but I'm sure how do this

Any help would  be great 


Script: 

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

use strict;

my $total = 0;

open(FILE,"/usr/local/logs/pos/dollar_me") || die $!;

$total += $_ while(<FILE>);

close(FILE);

printf ("%7.2f\n",$total);  


The number comes out as 120.23   instead of $120.23..


Thanks 
James Parsons.
