Title: RE: selecting text from file

No because the exact script works with the exact same text file if it is copied to another file and saved with a different name.  Very weird.

Do you have to escape the ':'?

Thanks guys - what you say works generally however for some reason it fails on the output of winmsd. 

 

But it fails on an actual file generated by winmsd - it is like the file is in another encoding or something and perl does not recognize the characters.  If I copy and paste the output to a file with a different name and change the name of the file in the script, it works.  What the heck is going on here?

 

Try it:

 

`winmsd /report c:/a.txt`;
sleep 90;
open (WININFO, "c:\\a.txt");
while (<WININFO>)
{
        next unless /\[System Summary\]/;
        while (<WININFO>)
        {
                last if /\[Hardware Resources\]/;
                print;
        }
        last;
}
close  WININFO;
