Are you versions of perl the same on both boxes, it sounds like your concatenation isnt working as expected on one. Try just
my $message = "Completed CODE standards checks.\nFor details, refer to the file." why concatinate when you don't have too. -----Original Message----- From: Sundeep [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 20 September 2007 06:34 To: beginners@perl.org Subject: Re: Abnormal behavior of print / syswrite Tried: print STDOUT ">>>$message<<<"; output: >>>Completed GSCC standards checks. Its prob with print or the machine I'm working on. Same code works good when run on other m/c. But my problem is I have to make it run in this m/c.
