Hi Monks, Got a very basic doubt, my code is below--

use warnings;
print "Enter the name of the file:\n";
$filename = <STDIN>;
chomp($filename);
open MYFILE, "$filename" or die "Error in opening: $!";
print "Enter your text:\n";
$new_text = <STDIN>;
chomp($new_text);
print "\nYour new file contains: $new_text\n";
open MYFILE, ">>$filename" or die "Error in opening: $!";
print MYFILE "$new_text\n";

while(my $line = <MYFILE>)
{
  print "$line\n";
}

close(MYFILE);

The contents of the file are not appended to the STDOUT. Please guide how to do that.
