what I'm doing is sucking in a webpage using LWP off a site thats run on a
mac ...
I dump this to a file ... then I open this file and want to seperate the
lines in it ... the @array seems to read it in as one element ... so
chomp() wont work and the only way I can think of to seperate it is by
splitting it up using the newline element ... \n doesnt work, nor \r\n ...
I've tried a few combinations of \f \n and \r but still no joy ...
