Re: A challenge to explain the strange results (under linux)

I would bet that your color.txt file has Windows line endings on all
platforms.  If you do this:

  perl test.pl color.txt | less

you may find that you're getting output after all.


Make sure color.txt has Unix line endings on the Linux machines.  Here's
one way to fix it:

  perl -pi -e 'tr/\r//d' color.txt
