Re: Re: Can I copy a file and rename the file to many new files?

Thanky very much for the quick answer.
The code works great!.
I have only one more question.
If the "MAINFILE.TXT" also contain the HOST and IP on several lines like this.
"MAINFILE.TXT"
someinfo
HOST
IP
someinfo
This is my computer HOST and it has the adress IP.
someinfo someinfoHOSTsomeinfo
How can I also replace these?.

Yes It it should be one line
someinfo someinfoHOSTsomeinfo

If you want to replace all occurances of HOST and IP in your mainfile.txt during the copy process, you just need to replace the printing part: `... foreach my $txt (@lines) { # replace HOST and IP with $hostname and $ipaddr $txt =~ s/HOST/$hostname/g; $txt =~ s/IP/$ipaddr/g; print $output "$txt\n"; }` [download] This will replace ALL occurances of HOST and IP in your mainfile.txt.
