I don't know what Perl documentation you've read, but Perl subroutines
don't look like that. You don't "declare parameters".
errornos($line, 1, \*NEW);
# ...
sub errornos {
my ($machine, $errorno, $fh) = @_;
print $fh "error $errorno $machine\n";
}
Where did you pick up your current idea about Perl's subroutines?
