decided to add this as a seperate node
This is the starting point I've got so far:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use diagnostics;
my %cmds;
my $rgx;
my $sub;
$cmds{qr/^\s*quit/} = \&quit;
$cmds{qr/^\s*cmd .*/} = \&cmd;
my $txt = "cmd 12 arg2";
foreach $rgx (keys(%cmds)) {
if ( $txt =~ /$rgx/i ) {
$sub = $cmds{$rgx};
&$sub($txt);
}
}
exit;
sub quit {
print "called quit\n";
}
sub cmd {
my ($cmd, @argx) = split /\s+/, $_[0];
print "called ".$cmd." with ".$argx[0]." ".$argx[1]."\n";
}
which when called as above returns:
called cmd with 12 arg2
and if the line: my $txt = "cmd 12 arg2";
is changed tomy $txt = "quit";
returns:
called quit
