The script just hangs at the point when it reaches the insertion code.

Would Tie::File work if the file permissions were changed?

The reason i'm using TIE::File is to modify the file in place (insert content on finding placeholders within the file) instead of using a temp file to achieve the same.

Would Tie::File work if the file permissions were changed? Well, appropriate file permissions (read, write) are of course required. But file permissions don't solve the issue of the file opened in append mode. Nor the problem of inserting a newline instead of using splice.	[reply]
