I am running a perl program that reads a file name from commandline
substitutes one string with another
displays the output
#!/usr/bin/perl
open(IN,$ARGV[0]) || die $!;
while(<IN>){
s/$ARGV[1]/$ARGV[2]/;
print;
}
exit 0;
__END__
# I run this using command
# perl myscript.pl THEFILE OLDSTR NEWSTR
Can I use <> instead on open file and then <IN> here
Thanks
