Hi.

Still struggling with some basic things here.

If I do

while (<>){
    chomp;
    my $voir = $_;
    $voir =~ s/o/"y"/gem;        
    say $voir;
}

On a multiline text file, I do get the expected result with the input file modified as desired.

However, if I try this to write resulting lines to a specific file

while (<>){
    chomp;
    my $voir = $_;
    $voir =~ s/o/"y"/gem;        
    my $Fichiersortie = 'sortie.txt';
    open my $sortie,  ">", $Fichiersortie  or die "Can't open $Fichier
+sortie: $!";
    say $sortie $voir;
    close($sortie);
}

All I get is a one-line file with the last line (modified) only.

I feel that I don't understand some very basic diamond principle here, something to do with this elusive part of the PRINT doc maybe :

To use FILEHANDLE without a LIST to print the contents of $_ to it, you must use a real filehandle like FH , not an indirect one like $fh .
Could a holy one enlighten me please ?
