in reply to read multiple lines

Neither your code nor your description really tell us anything useful about what you are trying to achieve. Something as simple as:

use strict; use warnings; /^output/ and print while <DATA>; __DATA__ hfkjd process jhk start begin output1 output2 end process scrap hkl process khfk shoot hooter begin output3 end process

does what you ask for. But that sure doesn't seem likely to be the answer your teacher wants. Until you can explain clearly what it is that you need to do you will not be able to write a program to do it. First step: describe the problem.
