Dear All,
Hello,
In my text file, the following occurrence are there:
begin
some of group of text some of group of text some of group of text
some of group of text some of group of text some of group of text
some of group of text some of group of text some of group of text
some of group of text some of group of text some of group of text
end
In this, I need to search the contents from "begin" to "end" and it should
be copied into an another file. I tried but all went wrongly. Kindly
suggest in this regard.
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
my $input_file = 'my text file';
my $output_file = 'another file';
open my $IN_FH, '<', $input_file or die "Cannot open '$input_file'
because: $!";
open my $OUT_FH, '>', $output_file or die "Cannot open '$output_file'
because: $!";
while ( <$IN_FH> ) {
if ( /^begin/ .. /^end/ ) {
print $OUT_FH $_;
}
}
close $OUT_FH;
close $IN_FH;
__END__
