in thread golf: shortest way to parse a pipe delimited file

I see more than 41 characters because you say while (<SRC>) { } In my solution, the filehandle is part of the solution character count. If I put my solution in the context of yours it looks like this:
sub parse{ #12345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890 %p=map{chomp;split/\|/;shift@_,[@_]}@_ } parse(<SRC>);
and is 37 characters.
