Re^2: scp command in perl introduces extra character while copying

well it is this line that is causing problem

system('/usr/bin/scp', "user\@$i:/tmp/zz.txt", "/tmp/zz_$i\.txt");

/tmp/zz_$i.txt becomes /tmp/zz_$i?.txt where $i is a hostname.

`$i` is not a hostname. `$i` is a hostname followed by (at least) a newline. So, please try using `chomp` on the lines read from `STDIN`.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Thanks Monks (chromatic and ikegami). It is missing "chomp" that helped resolve. thanks again.	[reply]
