Just curious: why use \x0A instead of \n? Does the latter get converted even if binmode is set on the filehandle?

Don't fool yourself.

Ugh. No. \n and `binmode` works just fine. But \x0A gets converted to \x0D\x0A if `binmode` is not present. That's a pitfall and I must have mixed it up in my memory. holli, /regexed monk/	[reply] [d/l] [select]

But \x0A gets converted to \x0D\x0A if binmode is not present. Seriously? By who? I'm not doubting you (as I have no Windows machine handy to test it out on), but that seems a little odd... thor `Feel the white light, the light within Be your own disciple, fan the sparks of will For all of us waiting, your kingdom will come`	[reply]
