Re^3: Format ignorance

I mentioned FileHandle because in the OP, section "Original code", FileHandle is used. Of course IO::File would be the better choice, but since reading is expensive, I pointed to the module at hand.

With eagerness one naturally ends up with IO::File, since the first sentence in the DESCRIPTION section of FileHandle reads

NOTE: This class is now a front-end to the IO::* classes.

:-)

--shmem

_($_=" "x(1<<5)."?\n".q·/)Oo.  G°\        /
                              /\_¯/(q    /
----------------------------  \__(m.====·.(_("always off the crowd"))."·
");sub _{s./.($e="'Itrs `mnsgdq Gdbj O`qkdq")=~y/"-y/#-z/;$e.e && print}

Sorry, I hadn't looked at the main program. Because in the OP already uses FileHandle is indeed a good reason. :)	[reply]
