Re: split on newline

my @words = <>;
chomp(@words);
print(join(';', @words), "\n");
[download]

As a one-liner:

perl -nle'push @w, $_; END { print join ";", @w }'

-l inserts a chomp; into -n's (and -p's) loop.

That works... the -l is the secret, thank you... I was chomp'ing it manually yesterday and it was blowing up...	[reply]

It's not the chomping that was blowing up your code. `perl -nle' push @w, $_; END { print join ";", @w } '` [download] is the same as `perl -ne' BEGIN { $\ = "\n"; } chomp; push @w, $_; END { print join ";", @w } '` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

You had some other problem yesterday. chomp-ing 'manually' won't blow anything up.	[reply]
