Hello,

Please make your subject more secriptive of the issue:

 "get list of files and process each one"

woudl have been much better (saves time for the list and makes for more effective searchin and browsing later)

 "HELP...what am I doing wrong?"
seems to require the answer:
  "not doing any coding or reading of docs ;p"

I can't figure out the logic for this. Can you help?

open file with list
foreach file in the list:
open it
if matches criteria do search and replace inline (instead of the odd tmp file/rename thing..)


perldoc -f open

will help for starters :)
