Redirect Here-document contents

perlpal has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Hello Monks,

Is there a way to redirect the print content of a here-document to a file rather the the user console (stdout)?

Thanks in advance!

A here document is just a string. Anything you can do with a string, you can do with a here document. You'd print a here document to a file the same way you print any other string to a file.	[reply]
