in thread Perl delete function

Greetings!

Yes, I wish to compare it line by line. But there is a tricky part. What if Text1 contains only 1 line and Text2 contains 2 lines? Any suggestion would be much appreciated.

    That is why my code tested for eof (end of file) for both file handles. To complete the validation, verify that it reached the eof for both handles after the while loop.

    *edited my code to demonstrate*

      Thanks for tips. It works fine! I never knew about eof before until now. New thing to pick up.
