If you start simple, Text::CSV_XS' interface does not have a steep learning curve at all :)

If all your text files have a header, and you want "column" fooble extracted from all TAB-separated .txt files

use strict; use warnings; use Text::CSV_XS qw( csv ); my @result; foreach my $f (sort glob "*.txt") { # Use File::Find for recursive act +ions csv (in => $f, headers => "auto", sep => "\t", on_in => sub { push @result => $_{fooble}; }); } open my $fh, ">", "results.txt" or die $!; say $fh $_ for grep { length } @result; close $fh;

Enjoy, Have FUN! H.Merijn

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • 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).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
