Re: File parse

This is a perfect job for unpack. The following test code should prove helpful:

use strict;
while (<DATA>) {
    chomp;
    my @array = unpack("A12A16A11A*", $_); # @array has 4 elements now
    print map("'$_'\n", @array);
}

__DATA__
0x130005d   1.253.54.1_MIB  0x230f0    SNMP        
0x130009c                   0x1006b    SnmpPif
