No. You'd either pipe the output of one script through the other: `perl script.pl \| perl -nae'print "@F[0,1,5]\n"'` [download] which is the same as doing it with `awk`. Or you'd have to edit `script.pl` to change the statements that print its output to do what you want. Makeshifts last the longest.	[reply] [d/l]
