Im having the same problem w/ writing to a file, using Win2k/ActivePerl
Thinking that win2k is not handling the opening of files correctly. Please, without saying, dont use win2k, can someone post a work around?
I updated w/ the suggestion you posted as such:
#!perl -w
open(FILE, "data.txt"); #opens data.txt in read-mode
while(<FILE>){ #reads line by line from FILE which i
+s the filehandle for data.txt
chomp;
print "Saw $_ in data.txt\n"; #shows you what we have read
}
close FILE; #close the file.
$a = "keylogger.dat";
open FILE, ">$a" or die; #opens file to be written to
while(<>){ #while we're getting input from the keyb
+oard
print FILE $_; #write it to our file
}
close FILE; #then close our file.
