perhaps they go away when you "do some stuff." :)

a little more code might help.

    :P sorry about that... actually it was stupid and I solved it myself five minutes after posting (I already said in a post that I'm an idiot...).

    Actually, I needed to: 
    foreach (@files)
  {
    $_->{fh}->close;
  }

    and that basically took care of it, but it looks pretty ugly to me. But then again, I am just learning perl (my resident guru says I still "speak perl with a C accent"). ...sigh... Well, at least I'm trying!

      To make it look more pretty try:

      foreach my $file (@files) {
  $file->{fh}->close();
}

      Update: Changed close to close() to improve readability.

        Is that "better code" too? (stylistically, etc)

        This is a matter of taste, and the basis of many flame wars.
        In short, if that's how he likes his code, let him do it.
        I for one like it his way.
        Changed close to close() to improve readability.
        And I suppose you'd change print; to print(); to improve readability?
        Anyway, close takes no arguments. I like to leave out unnecessary parens whenever possible, and I'm guessing other people do too.
