Is there a way in perl to peek the next line in the file while keeping
the line pointer the same?
I want to do something like this:
while (<INFILE>)
{
//do some stuff
//?? peek next line ?? and enter conditional block//
//do some more stuff
}
You could do this:
my $pos = tell $fh;
my $next_line = <$fh>;
seek $fh, $pos, 0;
