in reply to checking file everytime a new line is added to file

Oy! What happened? A double post :(

I'll have to think of something to fill this with...

It ain't Perl, but rather than make you deal with a double post (and in lieu of submitting an editor request), I'll torture you with one of my favorite poets -- Ovid.

Elegy 9B

If I heard a voice from heaven say 'live without loving',
I'd beg off, girls are such exquisite hell.
When desire's slaked, when I'm sick of the whole business,
Some kink in my wretched nature drives me back.
It's like riding a hard-mouthed horse that bolts headlong,
Foam flying from the bit, and won't answer the rein.
Or being in a ship at the point of docking in the harbor
When a sudden squall blows me back out to see again.
That's how the veering winds of desire so often catch me.
Hot Love, up to his lethal tricks again.

I'll spare you the rest...

Cheers,
Ovid

Update: Hoist on my own petard! d4vis needs a good spanking :)
