in reply to grep of readline matching more lines than elements in array

This:if (grep ($comp, @isos20)) {

Equates to  if (grep ( "comp1234_c0_seq1", @isos20 )) {

Which isn't a valid way to use grep.

Try: if( grep( /$comp/, @isos20 ) ) {

    Thanks for catching that. I actually had the // construction in my original code. Fixed now in posted code.
