in thread Cannot read in multiple lines

Ok so lets say you did set $/ to undef because the template scheme you are using is dumb and you just discovered the errors of your ways. How do you re-define it since I tried: local $/ = "/n" and that did not work. I am rewriting the template parts to get around that but how do I do that for future reference?

    You've just got the slash backwards: local $/ = "\n" ;
