You might also consider using the three argument form of open:

open(my $in, '<', "/Users/Desktop/Pipelines/fungi.1.aa.hypothetical.fa +a"); open(my $out, '>', "Users/Desktop/Pipelines/fungi.1.aa.hypothetical50. +faa");

*My* tenacity goes to eleven...

    I definitely agree with the three-argument syntax you are suggesting, but I think that MidLifeXis's comment was even more important: checking whether the file could be open. I would therefore suggest this possible syntax:
    my $input_file = "/Users/Desktop/Pipelines/fungi.1.aa.hypothetical.faa +"); my $output_file = "Users/Desktop/Pipelines/fungi.1.aa.hypothetical50.f +aa"); open my $in, '<', $input_file or die "could not open $input_file $!"; open my $out, '>', $output_file or die "could not open $output_file $! +";

      I always use autodie, so its a moot point for me... :-)
