Aside from the modules and the compact solutions,
I'll try a non-obfuscated solution first ;-) This will
work on any 'text-matrix' as far as it's rectangular ...
my $inp='
1 2 3
4 5 6
a b c
x y z
';
my @data;
my @elem = grep length, split /\s+/, $inp;
my $rows = () = $inp =~/(?<=^)\w/msg;
my $cols = @elem / $rows;
for my $col (0..$cols-1) {
push @data, [ map $elem[$col + $cols*$_], 0..$rows-1 ]
}
# print the matrix
print "@$_\n" for @data;
Regards
mwa

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.
