May I ask what kind of system you are using ? For me, Win32, I will use chop, like chop($input); # Kill whatever the last char at a line
But if I go on with unix like system, I have to use chomp, like chomp($input); # kill only CR at the end of line. I don't know why, but chomp doesn't take effect on my system (Win32). So you may try both to find the one fit you needs.
