in reply to pattern match on entire file

If the user input is always going to be straight text rather than a regular expression, then it may be faster to use grep.

    You can shorten this: 
    @file = <FILE>;
$temp = join('',@file);

    [download]
    to just one line: 
    $file = join '', <FILE>;
