Re^2: Statement Parsing and Rendering

[PerlSufi]

hdb: I could only get that to work my changing it to..

open(my $in_fh = IO::File->new, "<", $infile) 
or die "Can't open $infile: $!.\n";

close $in_fh;

my $chunk =~ s/[\f\r\n]//g;
my @statement = split '`', $chunk;

## %desc stuff here
my %data;
$/ = "`\n";
foreach my $line (@statement) {
..
}

instead of:

my %data;
$/ = "`\n";
foreach my $line (<DATA>) {
..
}

Is %data set to the file variable in your version? I think shifting the first field may be a mistake of mine, too. Doing this doesn't parse the 200~ fields. my output was:

Unknown data 020000000123
Unknown data 500
Unknown data 300
Unknown data 510
Unknown data 539
Unknown data 510
Unknown data 539
Unknown data 599
Unknown data 570
Unknown data 540
Unknown data 550
Unknown data 690
Unknown data 701
Unknown data 200~
