Dear all
I own nothing but faith in you all because I have tried to find the answer to my question on the internet for long but couldn't get (or understand) it...
Here's my problem:
I have a script that scans throught a text file and writes all line except those starting with an A.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
open (my $file, "<", "/file.txt") or die "cannot open < file.txt $!";
while (<$file>) {
unless (/^A/) {
print;
}
}
That works, but I get the results of this script in the terminal.
What I want is just to get these results to be saved in a new text file.
Can somebody help me ?
Please light my path amid the darkness with the wisdom that is yours
Thanks a lot !
Chris
