I am trying to figure out how to print 8 scalers/elements then \n,
then 5 more lines of 8 or less for a max total of 40  Here is my
code:

print FILEOUT "eject 0,0,0 ";
my $count = `wc -l <$ejectapes`;

One idea:

    my @elem = split ' ', $count;
    @elem = splice @elem, 0, 40;
    while (@elem) {
        local $, = ' ';
        print FILEOUT ( (splice @elem, 0, 8), "\n" );
    }

Check out

    perldoc -f splice
