in thread Can figure out a way to get File::Grep's fgrep to chomp matches

It worked, however, it would not help when feeling it a list of files where one wants the line numbers and file names.

$VAR1 = [ '2 foo', '3 bar', '4 baz', '5 qux', '6 quux' ];

If I feed it a list of files, I get a list of everything which matches but no line numbers and file names attached. You helped a lot today! Thank you!

No matter how hysterical I get, my problems are not time sensitive. So, relax, have a cookie, and a very nice day!

    As already mentioned, I don't like this implementation, far too many surprises.

    No wonder it's version 0.02

    You could fix it probably with a leading chomp inside the fgrep, but frankly it's easier to code it the old fashioned way than to struggle with this interface.

    I don't have this module installed, sorry.
