I call a perl script from SAS using a pipe. The file on which the

filename ABI pipe "perl C:/base.ps" ;
For now, I altered the script to read a text file containing the file
name, but this is wasteful. I appreciate any comments.
I'm not exactly sure what you're asking but try this:
my $filename = <STDIN>;
chomp $filename;
@ARGV = ( $filename );
while(<>){
...
}
Shawn,
That should work, but I cannot use the keyboard to provide the STDIN.
Instead I was hoping for something like:
filename ABI pipe "perl C:/base.ps >file.ab1" ;
^^^^^^^^^
Thanks,
