file handling in perl without using system command
Hi ,

Is there any way to achieve following using perl program (i.e without using system command).

1.system ("echo 'test' > /usr/spool/ship.csv");
2.system ("cat /usr/ajay_test* >> /usr/spool/RAM/work/patil.csv");
3.system("> /usr/spool/ajay.txt");
e.g

for system("rm -f /usr/ajay.txt");
we can use
unlink "/usr/ajay.txt");

Thanks,
Ajay

Directories(4)						     Kernel Interfaces Manual						    Directories(4)

NAME

       Directories - Contains queued requests for file transfers and command executions on remote systems

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/spool/uucp/SystemName

DESCRIPTION

       The /usr/spool/uucp/SystemName directories are the uucp	program spooling directories on the local system.  The uucp program creates a Sys-
       temName directory for each system listed in the /usr/adm/uucp/Systems file, including the local system.

       Each SystemName directory contains queued requests issued by local users for file transfers to remote systems and for command executions on
       remote systems.

       The  uucp  program  uses  several types of administrative files to transfer data between systems.  These files are stored in the SystemName
       directories. They are: Contain directions for the uucico daemon concerning file transfers.  Contain data to be sent to  remote  systems	by
       the  uucico  daemon.   Contain  instructions for running commands on remote systems.  Contain data files after their transfer to the remote
       system until the uucp program can deliver them to their final destinations (usually the /usr/spool/uucppublic directory).

RELATED INFORMATION

       Daemons: uucico(8), uusched(8), uuxqt
