Hi BrowserUk,
Many thanks for your pertinent remarks and sorry for my bad code formatting, especially from a guy whose his father was a French cooking chief :-)
In fact I append many integer values thus the ">>". And they could be negative, because they are latitudes and longitudes worldwide.
I was also using the old fashioned format in the "for" loop...
But despite using the "binmode" instruction, the resulting file is longer than 30000 chars for 10000 iterations, typically 30035 !!!
Please, do you have any idea for this strange behaviour ?

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
