Hello all,

I know this has been asked a few times over the years, but I can't find
an answer that is what I need in the archives.

I have 2 files. I have a for loop.  I need to read from both files with
1 file handle, or whatever will allow my code to read from both files
alternating between them.

Basically I need the equivalent of this:

#open file1
#open file2 

while (<file1> || <file2>) {

#process line from file1
#process line from file2

}

I've tried the Perl Cookbook recipe for reading from multiple
filehandles and I need more than just to have a list of file handles
returned.  I need to be able to read (and process) a line from each file
handle so that they finish at about the same time.  Not a solution that
reads one file then the other.

Any help is appreciated.

Kevin
