Friend, anybody have idea regarding this problem. Assume I want know where the word call "fish" locate in which line number, and this word i save under file call nlexample. Assume we already know fish save under line number 2, how we show this?
Example:nlexample I love vegetable I love fish I love perl my script ----------- my $lineno; while (<>){ if (/pattern/){ print $lineno++; print ": $_"; } } As i know we can use pattern tester to matching right? But why i perl no allow me compiler? [EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# ./pattern nlexample fish Can't open fish: No such file or directory at ./pattern line 7, <> line 6. Any comment regarding this problem, please advise. --------------------------------- Do You Yahoo!? Get your free @yahoo.com.hk address at Yahoo! Mail.
