This is a good start, and will probably do all you
need, as pointed out by a couple of others already;
but with binary files, I prefer to use "read" than the
angle-brackets. With binary files, there may be vast
differences in "line sizes", which, with a large file
can cause memory trouble.
Either decide that the files are small, and deliberately
slurp everything in at once:
{ local $/ = ''; $_ = <FILE>; }
print FILE2 encode_base64($_);
or if the files could be large, use read with a fixed size
buffer (4K in this example):
my $buffer;
while ($_ = read(FILE, $buffer, 4096)) {
print FILE2 encode_base64($_);
}
: while(<FILE>)
: {
: $string = encode_base64($_);
: print FILE2 "$string";
Oh, and don't enclose a single variable in double quotes; it's
inefficient and looks funny.
: }
: close(FILE);
: close(FILE2);
