Re^2: Read in a file containing the criteria for a program when it runs

Awesome!! Quick question. Did you mean to comment out the three lines under my $line = <DATA>. If so, why? Thanks again. Much appreciated.

In this example, I use `__DATA__` section and read it with `<DATA>`. This way, all is included in one file. But you will probably use an external file. To do that, just delete `my $line = <DATA>;` and `while ($line = <DATA>) {` (and `__DATA__` section). Then uncomment the three lines.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
