Hi, I have written a script which accesses each file in a directory and processes them in turn. While it is doing so, I want it to put out status message like:
"Processing $filename, please wait......" And then when the script has finished processing a file, I want it to say "Done" at the end of the same line. For this, I have put 'print "Processing $filename, please wait......"; ' near the top of the loop, and 'print " Done\n";' at the bottom. When I do this, both the messages are put out at the same time after the file is processed. If I put a \n at the end of the first message, the messages are output one by one with the requisite time lag in between, but the " Done" comes on the next line. How can I get Perl to put out the messages on the same line with the time lag? jagdish eashwar
