toonski has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
I've been trying to do this thing with inserting and deleting stings of data into files. i'm writing a flatfile database with fixed length records and i wrote a routine that inserts strings of data into a file, but every time i do it it pads null strings at the end of the file. is there just a standard module that can do this for me faster and easier? deleting would help as well.
thanks
