If you just want to view the content, use "less". You can also use head and tail to view part of the file from the beginning or end. To change a small portion without changing the size (no insertion, deletion) you can use a hex-editor or dd to do it efficiently.

perl::critic::policy::inputoutput::requirecheckedopen
Perl::Critic::Policy::InputOutput::RequireCheckedOpen(3)User Contributed Perl DocumentatioPerl::Critic::Policy::InputOutput::RequireCheckedOpen(3)
NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::InputOutput::RequireCheckedOpen - Write "my $error = open $fh, $mode, $filename;" instead of "open $fh, $mode,
$filename;".
AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.
DESCRIPTION
The perl builtin I/O function "open" returns a false value on failure. That value should always be checked to ensure that the open was
successful.
my $error = open( $filehandle, $mode, $filename ); # ok
open( $filehandle, $mode, $filename ) or die "unable to open: $!"; # ok
open( $filehandle, $mode, $filename ); # not ok
use autodie;
open $filehandle, $mode, $filename; # ok
You can use autodie, Fatal, or Fatal::Exception to get around this. Currently, autodie is not properly treated as a pragma; its lexical
effects aren't taken into account.
CONFIGURATION
This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options.
