Please don’t use File::Slurp. See http://blogs.perl.org/users/leon_timmermans/2015/08/fileslurp-is-broken-and-wrong.html for some reasons why. File::Slurper or Path::Tiny are both good alternatives; Path::Tiny in particular has a very convenient API and makes working with files, directories, and paths in a cross-platform way super easy. thanks, john. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
