It's been my experience that readers of this group relish a demonstration of
their persnicketiness.  For this I give the following; it works, but doesn't
appeal to me:

   my @tmp_list;
   my @list;
   my $description;
   push @tmp_list, split(/\t/,$_,6);
   push @list, $tmp_list[0],
$tmp_list[1],$tmp_list[2],$tmp_list[3],$tmp_list[5];
   $description = $tmp_list[4];

There are six sub-strings separated by tab stops.  Sub-strings zero through
three and five are extracted to a list.  Sub-string four is extracted to its
own variable.

Suggestions?
