Hi I have some C code that I need to convert to perl and I am pressed for time, which is why I am posting this. All the code does is read each character from either STDIN or a file and replaces any ASCII control characters with a space.
Is the perl getc() function the best way to look at one char at a time? The C code looks like below. I have some ideas but I am not sure of the best way to represent these char ranges in perl -- while ( !feof(fin) ) { ch=getc(fin); if ( (ch<=0176) && (ch>=040) || (ch=='\n') ) { putc( ch, stdout ); } else { putc( ' ', stdout ); } } ----- Thanks for any suggestions Jim -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
