Subject: [roch-pm] Help with File handle.


 when I print something (something more like 500+
 lines of paths) to stdio it prints everyone\ but when I print to a file it
 does'nt print anything.  I open the file with open
   (CONFIG_FILE, /home/hde/file.conf) or
 die Can't open file file.conf : $!\n;

 then I select the output like

 select CONFIG_FILE;

In the simplest case, there's no need to 'select CONFIG_FILE'.  Why couldn't
you just say:
print CONFIG_FILE $_\n foreach (paths);

I have tried both and nothing will work except when I print to stdio.

H...can you tell us if the following test program copied verbatim 
generates file /home/hde/file.conf with one line of output in it:

open CONFIG_FILE,/home/hde/file.conf or die Oops, $!;
print CONFIG_FILE This is a line of output\n;
Note that the select function has nothing to do with where output gets 
written by the print function.  And note there is no comma following the 
filehandle specification in the print function call (that being a common 
error).
