Thanks for the tips. I must admit, I hadn't
appreciated the overhead involved with the repeated
open/close operations. Turns out seek is my
new best friend :-)
The reason the STDIN/STDOUT unix filter paradigm wasn't implemented in this script has more to do with its original development than with with its final functionality. The first script was written on a Mac and I haven't found a good way to deal with STDOUT using MacPerl. Although it did make for some easily-implemented dialogue boxes :-)
