If you are going to print inside the loop, then use of @lines is useless (given the code), for the current line would be the only one (1) element of @lines, ever.

What is your input? What is the highest number printed?

kcott's version works as you expect. Your modified version (writing lines in a loop to another file) does work here, though output is not what you want. Read more... Code repeated; output as expected (3 kB)	[reply] [d/l] [select]
