Dear all: The prototype of read is read FILEHANDLE,SCALAR,LENGTH ex: read PATTERN, $line, 1920;
that means the $line will content 1920 bytes. if I want to modify the byte offset 720 of $line, it seems impossible, since $line is a scalar not an array. I know I can read a byte to each array element one by one, but it seems pretty slow. Is there any read file function can read in the file content to an array? appreciate your help, miloody -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
