printing EOUSAGE is not formatted

[DarVar]

Hi my perl program prints the options allover the place

print <<EOUSAGE;
Usage: option 1
option 2
option 3 etc..
EOUSAGE


However it doesn't print to the xterm in a formatted way.
i.e. it isn't lined up like above.

Is there a way to keep the output in line like above?

Thanks in advance

Works fine for me.

Trojan.

Maybe the settings for your Xterm are modified?

I am using Putty.

Is it Putty that the problem?

 

[PaulTEG]

Play around with the settings for puTTY, and see, there may also be configuration settings in your logon script that might affect this.

If you post what it should look like (hint: use

 tags), and also what it's actuially like (again the code tags to preserve formatting)

Regards
