I'm not printing to file; I'm filling a network-packet.
here's a more complete snippet :

my $msg = pack("C*",0x80,0x10,0x29, 0x00,0x00,0x01,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x01,0x20, @data, 0x00,0x00,0x20,0x00,0x01,0xc0,0x0c,0x00,0x20, 0x00,0x01,0x00,0x04,0x93,0xe0,0x00,0x06,0x60, 0x00,@ip); my $len_msg = length($msg); my $num_short = $len_msg / 2; bind(S, $us); send(S, $msg, 0, $them) or die "send : $!"; my $res=''; recv(S,$res,0,0); close S;
