Just for future reference, a "command line call" can usually be converted into a "program" fairly easily: `c:\@Work\Perl\monks>perl -MO=Deparse -pe "s#\bold(?=/path/to/some/)#ne +w#g" LINE: while (defined($_ = <ARGV>)) { s[\bold(?=/path/to/some/)][new]g; } continue { die "-p destination: $!\n" unless print $_; } -e syntax OK` [download] See O and B::Deparse. Give a man a fish: `<%-{-{-{-<`	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Translating such a Perl one-liner into an actual program is fairly simple, and we can help you. But the real point is this: is this what you need?	[reply]
