Yes, This is good

But I think it can all be done in one liner!

Like Browser_UK suggestion.

$Rec->{$1} = $2 if ($_=~ /-+\s+show (switchname)\s+-+\n(\w+)\n\*+/mg);

It's easy to write code that a computer can read, it's not so easy to write code that a human can understand.

It's a choice. The 'select' can easily be written as a single regexp. But think about later? What's easier to adapt? The single statement or the multiple statement?

I, for one, like code that shows its intend, even when coding in perl ;)
