Bareword filehandles (such as MYFILE) are not recommended.
Always test for exceptions.
The 3-argument form of open, which explicitly specifies the mode of opening the file, is recommended.
Never ever read from a filehandle (or filehandle reference) in list context. It loads the full file in memory, which might blow up your program in case of large files.
The default operand for chomp is $_.

tpage
TPAGE(1) User Contributed Perl Documentation TPAGE(1)NAME
Template::Tools::tpage - Process templates from command line
USAGE
tpage [ --define var=value ] file(s)
DESCRIPTION
The tpage script is a simple wrapper around the Template Toolkit processor. Files specified by name on the command line are processed in
turn by the template processor and the resulting output is sent to STDOUT and can be redirected accordingly. e.g.
tpage myfile > myfile.out
tpage header myfile footer > myfile.html
If no file names are specified on the command line then tpage will read STDIN for input.
The "--define" option can be used to set the values of template variables. e.g.
tpage --define author="Andy Wardley" skeleton.pm > MyModule.pm
See Template for general information about the Perl Template Toolkit and the template language and features.
