File not getting written

2003-06-11 Thread Rob Das
Hi All: I added the following line to my program: $/ = \65536; This was because I'm running out of memory when slurping entire files into memory (potentially hundreds of meg). However, the (separate) log file I'm writing afterwards is not getting created - nor am I getting any error messages. If

2002-12-06 Thread Rob Das
Hi All: I'm trying to find documentation on SetReadMode. It's in CPAN module "Term::ReadKey", which I can't persuade to work with Perl2exe (for NT AND Solaris AND HP-UX), so I'd like to pick out the bits of code I need and put them in my own script. First, I'd like to understand what SetReadMode i

Hi all: I have a script that is merging many files into a new file, by reading one at a time and adding to the new one. The error I received was "Out of memory during request for 1016 bytes, total sbrk() is 1186891848 bytes!" (I did not add the "!"...). This is on a Sun box with 4 Gig, typically

Encryption/Decryption

2002-09-20 Thread Rob Das
Hi List: Can anyone suggest a way/module to encrypt the contents of a file then decrypt it to get the contents back? I see many different modules on CPAN, but wondered if anyone can recommend one. I would be doing the encryption in one program, and the decryption in a different program. Any ide
