I believe that the Perl question was 'Is there a substitute or work-around for this problem I have?'. In so saying there is actually a perl fuction called, you guessed it!, grep.
perldoc -f grep will give you the info you need. -James -----Original Message----- From: Evan Panagiotopoulos [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Monday, December 17, 2001 4:34 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Substitute for grep command for Windows 2000 I had a script that was using the grep command to extract lines from a text file. That was under a Linux server. Since then we migrated to a Windows 2000 server and I found out that it doesn't support the grep command. Is there a substitute or work-around for this problem I have?
