retitle 622836 Do not omit "write" in perlform examples found 622836 5.28.1-6 thanks
Example: format STDOUT = @<<<<<< @|||||| @>>>>>> "left", "middle", "right" . Output: left middle right No. Output is nothing. You need to say: Example: format STDOUT = @<<<<<< @|||||| @>>>>>> "left", "middle", "right" . write; Output: left middle right To have an actual working example.
