*Poor code stripped*

This is how I tend to do things.

Update I completely stuffed this one.. I missed all sorts of things like writing back to the file, opening the file, etc.

Sorry if I caused any confusion.

while (<FILE>) {
   if (/somematch/) {
     $_=~s/somematch/replace/;
     print FILE "$_";
   }
   else {
      next;
   }
}
