Re: One Liner, print multiple regex matches

in reply to One Liner, print multiple regex matches

Add quotes around $1 and $2:

perl -nle ' print "$1 $2" if /name=(\w+).*age=(\d+)/' filename

warnings can also be used with one-liners to help you debug:

perl -nlew ' print $1 $2 if /name=(\w+).*age=(\d+)/' filename
Can't open  print $1 $2 if /name=(\w+).*age=(\d+)/: No such file or di
+rectory.

Please update your post to add "code" tags around your input file data.

Thank's It worked!

I simply added the quotes and its showing data for both regex matches.

Working code:

perl -nle ' print "$1$2" if /name=(\w+).*age=(\d+)/' filename
