Ikegami, Thanks! I'm trying to create another variable instead of piping to the screen - not sure about the "od -t xl" - how would I create a $var with the same output?

    If you want to assign a value to a var instead of printing it, well... do just that. 

    print $val;

    becomes 
    my $var = $val;
