Hi everyone,
l have programmed an extremely simple filter:
while (<INFILE>) {
if ( /$match_string/i ) {
print OUTFILE $_;
}
}
It happens that if $_ contains character \x1A, it will stop reading any
further from INFILE. Once l replace this char with another one (eg space),
everything works fine and it reads the whole file.
l�ve been using perl for a long time (though not a power user), but l�ve
never met with this kind of problem before. l�m using ActiveState perl
v5.6.1 running on Win2k, if this may help.
Any idea?
TIA,
Carlos
