Once you get the list of files do you want to modify their contents? Delete them? Copy or move them to a different location? If you just want to print out the list of files (all on one line): perl -lne'print($ARGV)&&close(ARGV)if/SETTLED<\/basis>/&&/CHAS/&&/20020401<\/asOfDate>/' /home/data/* John -- use Perl; program fulfillment -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

How do I use grep to get a list of files given multiple grep criteria?
Hello, I want to use grep to get a list of files into @files. Here's what it looks like now: $sender = "CHAS"; $asofdate = "20020401"; @files = `grep -sl $sender /home/data/*`; print @files; This gets all the files that contain CHAS, but what I really want is all the files that contain CHAS and $asofdate and SETTLED. These unix commands work to get the correct subset of files (I'm using ksh): grep -sl \SETTLED\<\/basis\> $( grep -l CHAS $(grep -l \20020401\<\/asOfDate\> /home/data/*)) grep -sl $bic /home/data/* | xargs grep -l \SETTLED\<\/basis\> | xargs grep -l \$asofdate\<\/asOfDate\> If I try the first of these between the backticks in the perl script, I get a sh error because it doesn't understand the ksh $() syntax. If I try the second, I get this error: sh: syntax error at line 1: `|' unexpected Can somebody suggest an easy way to call either of the above commands or to emulate them with a perl command? (For the moment, I've put them into a ksh script and am calling the script, but I would like the perl script to be self-contained.)

cgi script that takes in data then runs script on different host
Hi All, I've got a cgi form that takes in data. Then, I want the data to be passed to a script that's waiting on a DIFFERENT host. So, say I have this pseudo-code: cgi script on host 1pass $name to host 2 script on host 2 # get $name ---> print "hi there $name!\n"; Obviously, I'll be doing something a little more in-depth than printing the variables, but you get the idea!

Re: complementing a scalar
"This means: Take all the characters *not* in the SEARCHLIST and look for those." In my case, sometimes the shortest distance between 2 points is a circle. It finally sank in sometime yesterday and in celebration I spent the entire evening and most of the night pouring over perldoc. My problem was the definition of "complement" as Perl understood it.

You know, I don't mean to sound rude, but I get the feeling that you're making a similar kind of mistake as I often do when asking such questions: Trying to clever, and making guesses at what the answer will be, which then keeps you from understanding it. If I'm right, try to step back a bit and get a new perspective. If not, well, never mind me. > So my question is (drumroll) : Do I take it to mean that /c also adds the > negative values of the given SearchPattern to the SearchPattern? Otherwise, > what is the "complement of /a-z/ if not /-(a-z)/ ? I think you have it almost right actually, only thing is, I don't quite understand you... Hum, what does perldoc say to this? perldoc perlop says: tr/SEARCHLIST/REPLACEMENTLIST/cdsUC y/SEARCHLIST/REPLACEMENTLIST/cdsUC Transliterates all occurrences of the characters found in the search list with the corresponding character in the replacement list. Okay, I think you're with me thus far :-) It gets more interesting here: Options: c Complement the SEARCHLIST. d Delete found but unreplaced characters. yada yada... If the `/c' modifier is specified, the SEARCHLIST character set is complemented. This means: Take all the characters *not* in the SEARCHLIST and look for those. If the `/d' modi fier is specified, any characters specified by SEARCHLIST not found in REPLACEMENTLIST are deleted. So, delete everything we don't have a replacement for. Do you understand these two concepts now? If not, try typing this in your favorite shell: perl -ple'tr/abc//d' Play around a bit with it, give it a few lines to process and see what comes out... Then this: perl -ple'tr/abc//cd' Note the difference... Now, let's have another look at your original line: $name =~ tr/a-zA-Z0-9-_ .,:;'&$#@!*()?-//cd; The searchlist here is "a-zA-Z0-9-_ .,:;'&$#@!*()?-", the replacement list is "". Then /c comes along and complements the searchlist, so that now all characters not in the set "a-zA-Z0-9-_ .,:;'&$#@!*()?-" are looked for. Since there we have REPLACEMENTLIST (or else it's empty), we can't replace anything, but /d tells us to delete all the characters we cannot replace, so what do we do? Delete all the (matching) characters we find. In effect: look for all characters not in "a-zA-Z0-9-_.,:;'&$#@!*()?-" and delete them. I hope this reply is more useful than my last.

Hi Leila, I am using win2000 and the page you provided a link to says that I don't need any other stuff. Actually, it seemed to have installed fine for me as well.
