hi aufflick

I am not sure whether you have tested this program in Windows or not


If you run your script on Windows, the carrage return and newline will both be removed (since it's expected that under Windows files will end in both a carriage return and a newline).

I tested this program in windows, which is not behaving in the way you have explained. 

$one = "Hello\r\n";

print "Before chomp" , length($one) , "\n";
chomp($one);

print "After Chomp" , length($one) , "\n";

[download]
output:- 
Before chomp 7
After Chomp 6

From that I understood that only the newline is removed in chomp, not the carriage return.
