in thread Crypt() usage

.. and, related to that, I wonder if the different line-endings (in Linux and Windows) might result in a different crypt result. I only have Windows here at work, so I cannot test this hypothesis right now.

    Line endings should only be an issue in I/O. By default perl strings use a single newline character as a record separator. PerlIO translates between this and whatever your OS requires. When processing files from another OS, specify the required translation on the open statement.

      ...or use File::Edit::Portable which does the translations automatically for you, cross-platform, so you don't have to figure out which ending to use yourself ;)

      use File::Edit::Portable;
 
my $rw = File::Edit::Portable->new;

my $fh = $rw->read('file.txt');
