I am writing the script for "option" while getting arguments from command line, and below I have code,
use strict;
use warnings;
use Getopt::Std;
my %options;
if (scalar @ARGV < 3) {usage()};
sub usage
{
print STDERR << "EOF";
\nThis program does...
usage: $0 [-hcfo]
-h : this (help) message
-c : config file
-o : Fj xcf release file
-x : output file
EOF
exit;
}
getopts ("hc:f:o:", \%options);
usage() if $options{h};
my $source_file= $options{o};
my $dest_file= $options{x};
my $config_file= $options{c};
And in above code, I want to "-o" to be optional for example if user don't provide "-o(filename)" that means value for $source_file then I want to take default file suppose "source.txt";
Could any one guide me how can that be done?Please.
Cheers

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
