Subject: Argument for perl script
Hi All,
I am using @ARGV variable to record the argument passed to my Perl script.
Now the requirement is that if I don't pass any argument to Perl script then
it should show me following such output.
Perl ack
Usage: ack
-name
-pkg
-relno
-name, -pkg, -relno are the user friendly option which should be mapped to
the arguments passed to the Perl script.
So -name should take first argument -pkg should take second argument and so
on.
Please help how should I do that.
Regards
Irfan.
