You can use 'while'
Code:
 while (my $line = ) {     # do something with $line }

I want to post a link to the perldoc website with all the details, but this forum wont let me. if you have perldoc installed, run 'perldoc perlsyn' for the perl syntax documentation. Its also in pretty html on the perldoc website.
