You don't have to escape the colon in a regular expression.

Oh, cool. Didn't know that.

> my $home = $split_line[5];
> my @split_home = split(/\/, $home);
                         ^^^
Syntax error.  The terminating delimiter is missing.

I am confused. What do you mean, the terminating delimter is missing?
It seems alright to me...

"scalar(@split_home) - 1" could also be written as "$#split_home" or just "-1".

I did not know that ``-1'' would work. However, I prefer scalar() to $#.

There is More than One Way to Do It! :-)
