Hi !

I want to view some file on the linux file system from perl program.
I should be be able to scroll through the file but at the same time i should not
be able to change the contents.
i.e. i want to open the file in read only mode.

I am the owner of that file. So the command
System("vi <filename>");
won't work because it allows to modify the contents of the file.

In unix i can use command
cdimore <filename>
to do the same.

Can u suggest me any linux command ?

Prachi.
