Ah if I am going to do that I suppose something like this would work. #!/bin/sh while read data; do echo "`date +%H:%M:%S` : $data" >> logfile.log done
If that works, great. I'm not sure if you'll run afoul of output buffering in this situation. Clearly you've got the right idea, just need to make sure it behaves as you expect and doesn't clump the line reads into larger chunks.
The main improvement in the Perl implementation over this is the ability to do things like adjust timeout behavior easily.
