I have some 1000s of records of the following format
host=host1 network=10.x.x.x ip=10.x.x.x gw=10.x.x.1 history=history1 some comments.. multi line with some indentation at the beginning) loc=loc1 owner=owner1 env=env1 host=host2 network=10.x.x.x ip=10.x.x.1 gw=10.x.x.1 history=history2 some comments (multi line comments some indetation at the begining) owner=owner2 env=env2 Let's say my script is script.pl and I pass argument such as - <hostname>, it gets me the details of its record. Any help is appreciated. I know how to do that if it is a single line record.. Also, i don't know how to deal with history line (field for the history) that has multiple lines.
