Thank you so much for your help, I works perfectly. If I understand your script correctly, you are setting the line delimiter to a ";" and replacing all multiple spaces to single spaces? I have parsed the netlist using verilog-perl, but the time requirement seems to increase exponentially with number of cells. For older netlists with ~5k cells, the script takes about 12 hours. With my new netlist of about 450000 cells, I'm estimating a runtime of about 200 days which is unacceptable so I'm looking at alternative approaches.

    Yes.
    and replacing all multiple spaces to single spaces?
    \s refers to all types of whitespace; refer to perlre. The key here is that \s includes the newline character (\n). So, \s+ replaces multiple adjacent spaces, tabs and newlines. s///g changes all whitespace on a line.
    For older netlists with ~5k cells, the script takes about 12 hours.
    That is a surprisingly long time. Can you post your code for that?

    Depending on how your program works you can maybe gain some speed from using auto flush $| = 1;. OUTPUT_AUTOFLUSH
