some time ago I asked for some help to eliminate certain lines from a file. Someone suggested a solution with
{ local ( $^I, @ARGV ) = ( '', <*.log> );
now when I run this I get the error "Can't do inplace edit without backup at lexmorf_ruisweg2.pl line 12."
Windows doesn't let you do in-place editing without making a backup file. Therefore, $^I can't be "". Make it ".bak", and you'll be fine.
