Hi Jim,
All you should need to do is install the DBI module, and the
appropriate DBD module from CPAN.
The documentation for these modules is excelent. Although I haven't
used your specific setup, I stick to Linux/PostgreSQL I find the setup
works great.

The backslash is used to escape the letter following it, which in your
case converts '\S' to a 'S'. To insert a backslash you need to escape

Use a hash and read in file2 first:
open (FILE, "$file2") || die "cannot open $file2:$!";
while ( ) {
if ( ! defined $HashExist{$_} ) {
$HashExist{$_} = 1;
}

In the 2nd case your addressing your hash as a hash REFERENCE, which makes a
big difference

You can open the file, seek() to a particular position in it, and start

You can't. Perl scripts are child processes o

Theoretically, it should terminate the program. On Win2K, when you ^C

Just at a guess, I'd say it depends on the OS.
On UNIX, I'd bet you're right.

There's many ways to skin that cat!
(Apologies to my four cats).
I suggest creating a file which contains the directory name.
This is happening on a number of programs I wrote.

fine now.

perl -ne '/\n/ and $i++; eof and print $i'
where isn't really in <>s.
(Btw, be wary of using eof().
Otoh, sometimes it's just what you want.)
my $file = $ARGV(0);
