Is there any function that places perl code from a file into a program
as if it was just part of the program file itself?
Something like:
file
**************
Hello World.
**************
program
$file = slurp('file');
print "$file\n":
I'm creating an address book as described on page 237 of "Beginning
Perl" and adding a few twists. I would like to add functionality that
would allow a person to be prompted for and add/edit/delete entries in
the address book. I thought it would be best to place those entries
into a separate file in the format of:
>From the book -
$addressbook{"Paddy Malone"} = {
address => "23, Blue Jay Way",
phone => "404-6599"
};
And then bring them back into the program to print out.
Thanks,
kent
