To VSarkiss

So you want the line printed if it does not end in "matches)"? That could be as simple as: 

while (<STDIN>)
{
    next unless /matches\)$/;
    print LOG;
}
Changing "unless" to "if" is what I'm yabbing about but never mind.

This contains NEW info, there is always something new to learn along the perly path
CB snapshot 2003-02-04

<broquaint> Corion: yeah, just noticed :-/
broquaint trundles off to a meeting
<bart> I think $ARGV[0] is for the next file...
<BazB> Mmm. So is there actually a way to track the current file with ARGV?
<bart> $ARGV
<Corion> BazB: The scalar $ARGV contains the name of the currently open file, and @ARGV contains all the command line arguments.
<bart> One whole family: ARGV the handle, $ARGV the filename, @ARGV the list of files still to process
<BazB> Sorry, Corion, got confused by broquaint's comment.
<BazB> Thanks, Corion, bart.
castaway files away that bit of info for later use :)
