Re^2: how do I get the contents of different files pushed to an array?

Hello ww, You are correct my question was meant to ask how do I get the contents of a file ( and actually different files that list server names) pushed to an array.

ww's solution is actually better than mine, the best way for you to do multiple files is to figure out a solution as to how you can create a list of files you need, wether it be all files in a dir or a pre-specified list. It sounds to me that your best bet is going to be to step back for a minute and think about how you can get a file list first. then parse each file with a for loop. Good Luck :)	[reply]

Follow this recipe (précis, quasi-pseudo-code): `use strict; use warnings; open the first of the files w/server names; read contents to a $var; push $var to a new array (namely @all_server_names) rinse, repeat untill all files have been read and their content pushed Convert the above to code; execute` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
