I would try: s/\n//g;
This should replace every newline with nothing, globally. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of David Byrne Sent: Wednesday, October 08, 2003 4:09 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [SPAM] newline...be gone Greetings, I have a question that probably easy to many... How can I get rid of the newline at the end of $line (which transfers to $remainder after splitting)? foreach $filename (@filelist) { open(INPUT,"$filename"); foreach $line (<INPUT>) { chomp($line); my ($gene,$remainder) = split(/\t/,$line,2); chomp ($remainder); $genedex{$gene} .= "$remainder\t"; } } I've tried substituting, chomping, but the newline remains. It's gotta be something obvious... Thank you very much, David __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? The New Yahoo!
