Hi:

In the following perl script, I would like to print all the lines in a file (mdout_short.txt) to temp.txt which have "NSTEP" as a word:

************************************************
use strict;
use warnings;

my $mdout_file = "mdout_short.txt";

my $mdout_xtemp_file = "temp.txt";


open IN, $mdout_file or die;
open OUT, ">> $mdout_xtemp_file" or die;


while (<IN>)

                      {

                  print OUT ( $_ =~ ( / NSTEP/ ))

                      }

************************************************************
But this just prints
......
i mean only "6 dots" for six occurences/ matches. How can I get the "physical" lines printed rather than these dots?

Cheers,
Vineet
