I'm having a problem with the script below. I want to alter just the
first line of a CSV file, removing the prefix "tag_" from each value in that
line. However, because the new line is shorter than the original, the script
is only over-writing part of the original line (exactly the number of
characters of the new line).
Is there a way to replace the entire line with the new, shorter one?
Thanks,
Frank
use strict;
use warnings;
my $filename = 'products.csv';
open (my $fh, '+<', $filename) || die "can't open $filename: $!";
my $line = <$fh>;
$line =~ s/tag_//gi;
seek $fh, 0, 0;
printf {$fh} $line;
close $fh;
