    Based on your problem, I can see that they are not what you think.

    That is to be expected when you print a value like "12483|3.1.B.2\r\n".

    You did not use chomp() or other means to get rid of the
    unwanted carriage return at the end of the line.

    Next time, post to comp.lang.perl.misc instead of comp.lang.perl .
