in reply to Re^2: Convert Shell script to Perl
in thread Convert Shell script to Perl

You are confused about so many things that it does not make sense to give you small pointers. You need to take a step back and start learning Perl. See the books section of learn.perl.org, and maybe the Modern Perl book by chromatic, if you're in need of a free book and already know how to program in some other programming language.
