Perlmonger friends, I'm going to be "off-topic" by actually being "on-topic" - yep, it's a Perl question...
I am writing a Perl script to act as a filter for my FreeBSD's printer. It currently prints very well, however, I want to divide the <STDIN> by the number of characters it contains and place the results into an array. Specifically, 78 characters per item in the array - to include spaces, commas, "\n", etc. It'll only ascii based data which is sent to this <STDIN>. What am I doing? Well, the printer can only print a maximum of 78 characters per line, so I want to break-up the line should it be greater that 78 characters, and output them one by one. Many thanks!!! Phil
