I want to take a long string of text and split it into a two-dimensional array of $width x $height. I know of several ways to do this but none of them are as quick and dirty as I'd like them to be? Any suggestions?
Some clarification:
I want to read in the data from a bitmap say a PGM file where each 'character' is a pixel. First I'm going to break the header off the string, after that I want to split the data portion into a 2-D array of $widthx$height. I know of ways to do this but am looking for something really quick and clever.

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).
