The program loads the ENTIRE loadfile and then splits characters at
whitespace "between" characters and then prints every character followed
by a newline.
So, how big is loadfile?

I'm trying to help out another developer with a mini-Perl script.
He has a file that contains one very long line, about 28M in size.
He needs to do a replacement of all occurances of
|^NEWLINE^|^
to a literal newline (HPUX, 0x0a or "\n").
When I ran this
$ perl -ne 's/|^NEWLINE^|^/\n/
