Also, if anyone has ideas on processing the below line.....
taking this and split and use it.
the code written takes the fieldname cond value.
My thoughts are to build arrays splitting on the (),or, and
/condition include_1 (f7 ne 'CE' and f10 ne 'R' and f1 ne 'CE' and
f8 ne 'LG' and f8 ne 'LI' and f8 ne 'LJ' and
f8 ne 'LR' and f8 ne 'LU' and f8 ne 'LV' and
f8 ne 'TL' and f8 ne 'TA' and
(f4 eq 'E' or f4 eq 'G' or f4 eq 'W'))
I'm working on a routine now, but if someone has done something like
this already........

I split the input file, and put it all in a tgz at http://www.hotr.com/files/dev/test_syncsort.tgz contents: infile.dat outfile.dat syncsort syncsort_parm.srt the syntax would be ./syncsort < syncsort_parm.srt The subroutine i'm working on is do_summarize disclamer:first perl program, just using what works, and cleaning up later...... -- Jay Swackhamer Reboot The User 402-933-6449 http://www.reboottheuser.com http://www.cafepress.com/rtu http://stores.ebay.com/RebootTheUser http://www.hotr.com Quoting Jay Hannah <jay@jays.net>:On Feb 18, 2010, at 10:18 AM, Jay Swackhamer wrote:So what I need some insight on, is the correct way to 1. read in a line, where you dont know the length.2.
