You should create a sub-routine that handles these for you. For example:
sub mprint
{
my @fh;
push(@fh, shift) while (ref($_[0]) eq 'GLOB');
print $_ @_ foreach (@fh);
}
open($so, ">&STDOUT");
open($se, ">&STDERR");
mprint $se, $so, "This tests\n";
It's not quite as clean as the builtin, but it's pretty close. You could even group your filehandles together into array packages, so that it's tidier:
my @default = ($so);
my @log_and_print = ($log, $so);
mprint @default, "Standard message\n";
mprint @log_and_print, "This goes to log and screen\n";
Update:
IO::Tee looks like a great way to do this as well, provided you can install your own modules.
