Re^3: Converting a source code

No, no not this

open "SOURCEFILE", '<', "source.cbl" or die "Can't open: $!";
[download]

but this:

open SOURCEFILE, '<', "source.cbl" or die "Can't open: $!";
[download]

I probably was less than clear (typical; my first language is Ambiguous English). When I said "uppercase strings", I just meant that file handles typically look like this FILEHANDLE not like filehandle.
