my $output = `command param`; my $rc = system('command', 'param' From: Rajini Naidu <rajinid...@gmail.com> To: beginners@perl.org Date: 07/14/2009 11:41 AM Subject: perl query Hi, I have the below commands in the script. `$swlist -l bundle -a revision -a architecture -s $t | $grep $n >> $log_our_depot`; `$swlist -l bundle -a revision -a architecture -s $t | $grep $n >> $log_ourdepot_comp`; Here I am outputting the same command line output to different logfile. Is there a way in perl where I can output in one pass by storing it in a variable. -Rajini -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: beginners-unsubscr...@perl.org For additional commands, e-mail: beginners-h...@perl.org http://learn.perl.org/
