perl regular expressions doesnt matter, 051205 01:28
did i do this right? all i want is to replace 
"<" with "&lt;"

and

">" with "&gt;"
 
i have 
while ($lines = <SOURCEFILE>)

{

     $lines =~ tr/ < / &lt; /;

     $lines =~ tr/ > / &gt; /;

     print($lines);

}

The correct is:
$lines =~ s/\</\&lt\;/igs;
$lines =~ s/\>/\&gt\;/igs;
