The code below is no longer getting an error but is failing to remove new lines from the end of files in the Unix environment
my $fh = Symbol::gensym();
open $fh, '+<$Conf[1]' or warn "$!";
binmode $fh;
my $size = 4096;
seek $fh, -$size, 2;
# Locate the end of the file
while (1) {
$cur_pos = tell $fh;
read $fh, $buf, $size;
last if $buf =~ m/\S/s;
seek $fh, -$size*2, 1;
}
$buf =~ m/(\s*)$/s;
$cur_pos += $-[0] || 0;
truncate $fh, ++$cur_pos if $cur_pos;
close $fh;
Any ideas why
Thanks again

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

are good places to start.
