Hello
I have a problem on WinXP. In perl I want to read the tail of a file. The file is written with another windows
program. If I am using a sleep(5) before of the read command I get the new tail content. It seems the program
has longer to write it or it is buffered.
Is there a command in perl to flush a file?
Thanks
Urs
to flush the contents, set at the top of your perl program. $| = 1;
