[lug] file handle and pipe

so my friend was just a little off in syntax
this.....
open MAIL, "|/usr/sbin/sendmail jd\@taproot.bz";
print MAIL "$in{content}";
close MAIL;
should be.....
open(MAIL, "|/usr/sbin/sendmail jd\@taproot.bz");
print MAIL "$in{content}";
close MAIL;
just had to stare at it a while...like i said im new to perl. Piping
into a program is cool, can all programs with a command line interface
be piped into in this manner?
thanks,
jd
