why this is not working ??

[T.S.Ravi Shankar]

Hi all :

I am running a process "n" number of times with a for loop.  I am
interested in looking for the status at specific intervals(say at every
10 iterations).  I wrote the below shown code for this purpose but
without success :

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

open(STATUS,">> status.txt");
for ($i=0; $i<=98985;$i++) {
  system ("process");
  if (($i%10)==0) 
    { print STATUS "\n\n **** $i iterations over !!*****\n\n"; }
  }
close(STATUS);

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

"status.txt"  remains empty when the processes are run & the whole file
is written only at the end of all iterations, which serves no purpose !!

Could you please help me out in solving this problem ??

Thanks,
Ravi
