Perl -p -i -e "s/search/replace/<extras>;" <FILENAME>
-----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 02 September 2008 15:06 To: beginners@perl.org Subject: Perl equivalent of "sed -f" or "awk -f" I'd like to apply a series of inline edits to a file in Perl. With sed, I could use "sed -f commandfile inputfile" or in awk, "awk - f commandfile inputfile", however, I could not find an equivalent in Perl. I'd prefer not to use sed or awk as they do not support inline editing directly. In Perl, what would be the way to apply a series of multiple inline edits in this form to an inputfile? commandfile: s/searchterm/replaceterm/ s/searchterm2/replaceterm2/ s/searchterm3/replaceterm3/ etc...
