For that matter, if you want a consistent and more robust way of modifying
comma-separated files, look into using the various Text::* modules (CSV,
CSV_XS, xSV, etc), or, my favorite, DBD::CSV, which lets you manipulate a
CSV file with SQL (very simple to modify values in a consistent fashion!)
via the DBI.
