Re^3: Parsing out mulitiple blocks of interesting data in files / ignoring other contents

[Athanasius]

You’ve omitted this part of the code:

elsif (/^\s*shutdown/)
{
    @block    = ();
    $in_block = 0;
}

which tests for the “ignore entire block” keyword shutdown — so of course blocks containing that word are still being printed.

Works beautifully! Thank you kindly and greetings. GT
