Those aren't warnings, they are errors - your program is not compiling correctly. You need to place a "my" in front of your variables when you declare them (not when you use them) when you "use strict". Originally, your problem is here: $list1 = @rawtext; This simply puts the number of items in the array @rawtext (i.e. the number of lines of the input file) into the scalarvariable $list1.
