you are assigning an array ( list ) to a scalar. so the rvalue will be
calculated in scalar context which will be the number elements in @ARRAY
which will be 1 if you give one argument
(my $filename) = @ARGV;

An array in scalar context returns the number of elements in the array so if
@ARGV contains one file name then $filename will be assigned the number 1.
You
Hi All,
I try this script:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
my $filename = @ARGV;
my $lines;
#open FILE, "fred.txt" or die "Can't open foobar.txt : $!";
open FILE, $filename or die "Can't open $filename : $!";
$lines = join '', ;
print "$lines\n\n\n\n";
$lines =~ s/^/fred.txt: /mg;
