All,
was hoping anyone could provide some syntax help.
I want to populate an array from a system app call like so.... and then print out each element.
my @ftapes = system ("evmvol -w label_state=3|grep barcode"); print $ftapes[0];
You're looking for backticks:
my @ftapes = `evmvol -w label_state=3|grep barcode`; # etc...
Hope that helps.
