I've written a script to search for all *.pid files in a dir, then do
a cat on the file.  The script will then use this variable to kill the
process.  The problem I'm having is that the varibale is not being
read correctly.  I run the script and the kill process tries to run
without the variable.  Here is a post of the code I have.  Anyhelp
would be greatly appreciated.


find(\&wanted,$dir);

foreach my $afile (@dirstruct) {
    $mypid = system("cat $afile");
    chop($mypid);
    print "Killing instance...";
    system("kill $mypid");


I wrote this script a few weeks ago and it worked great, but I accidentally
deleted it and can't rememeber exactly how it was written. :-/
