in reply to perl can find the file but can not open the file

...like this:

#! /usr/bin/perl + # use v5.14.2; # don't have this + use strict; use warnings; my $file = shift || die $!; print qq("Got that $file!"\n) if -e $file; open ( my $fh, "<", $file) || die qq(Couldn't open $file: $!\n); print while <$fh>; close $fh; __END__ Karls-Mac-mini:monks karl$ ./ShermW0829.pl linux_complete_command_set. +txt "Got that linux_complete_command_set.txt!" Reboot that box! Go away, you don't exist!

Regards, Karl
