Thank you grep and BrowserUk.
below is a replacement for my first foreach statement which works better than my original code thanks to the suggestion by grep.
my $f2 = $pos[1] - $pos[0];
my $f3 = $pos[2] - $pos[1];
my $f4 = $pos[3] - $pos[2];
my $f5 = $pos[4] - $pos[3];
foreach $line (@data) {
my $pictureline = "a$pos[0] a$f2 a$f3 a$f4 a$f5";
print unpack( $pictureline, $line ), "\n";
}
And thank you again BrowserUk for a more elegant solution altogether.

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
