Another noobie question about perl on Windows - perl running in background

close perl.exe (eating 99% of CPU at that time). I wanted to know is there any break execution when using perl-express, and on Unix (since I use both types of OS). Thanks Ayesha -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/

Absolute noobie question regarding opening files on Windows platform

tatement in the script, the script works OK, implying Perl is installed correctly. Can anyone tell me what is wrong. Can anyone tell me what am I doing wrong here? It seems some Windows specific thing. thanks Ayesha -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/

Extreme beginner question on reading lines from a file.

line4 ..etc. I guess everytime I read a line, it increases the counter and reads the next line. I tried playing with the $. variable, but it did not help. Any suggestions here will be very helpful thanks Ayesha -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL
