in thread Displaying/buffering huge text files

Hey! I was looking for a way to handle big files and this looks awesome. I already tried and runs so cool. However, I am kind newbie on Perl. I was trying to modify in order to get secuencial access, not random. I haven't good luck on this. I just tried to remove the int rand( length( $index )/8) and let this with length of $index. Didn't work, the seek doesn't move the pointer in the file. Could someone can give me a hint? Thank you in advance!
