Hello haukex,

I think this is a misunderstanding. The return(0) are the usual code. I just commented them out while debugging to find out, on which point the open() fails. The gathered information showed me that the print behaves, like it was called after the close($fh). This behavior is, what I don't understand.

Your third example of your post you mentioned in "I posted", looks the very same to me like my foreach but reading. I think this works, but why does it stop to work, when I make it writing instead of reading and return()ing instead of die()ing?
