Found the way to delete duplicates on an array (using hash keys), but the
other problem is:
if I have linse on a file that say:
username:password sometx:uilokj
how do i delete the lines that don't have, say, 6 letters, followed by a :
and then another 6 letters.
tried this re, but it won't work:
/\w{6}:\w{6}/
That expression will match 6 word characters followed by a : followed by six word characters. Perhaps you meant to search and replace?
s/\w{6}:\w{6}//g;
Really, if you post your code, there's a much better chance we can help you.
