Fine then.
$line = sub_one( $line ) COND;
Where COND is any condition you specify, e.g.
$line = sub_one( $line ) if ( $line =~ /pattern one/ );

Hi,
I'm trying to understand the logic. When you open a file each line is read in
one at a time. At that point you can do whatever you want to that line. In my
case a search and replace.
Can I do two search and replaces on the same line or would I have to open the
file again for a second pass?
