I have about 190,000 HTML-files. Every one of those contains some HTML code in the end that I want to get rid of. How can I do that? I tried to solve this problem myself, but none of the solutions I came up with worked. No warnings, no errors, just no effect. For example
use warnings; use strict; use File::Slurp; local $/ = undef; for ($i=1; $i < 119000; $i++) {&s1;} sub s1 { open (fl, "+<", "C\:\\convs\\conv$i\.txt"); binmode fl; $string = <fl>; $string =~s/^.*Mina olen.{1561}//s; close(fl); }
What have I done wrong?
