Thnx for your help, this is what I was looking for : 

#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;

my @row;
my @f_map = ('f1', 'f2');
my $f = "format = \n"
        . ('^' . '<' x 15 . '|') x scalar(@f_map) . "\n"
        . '@row' . "\n"
        . ('^' . '<' x 15 . '|') x scalar(@f_map) . "~~\n"
        . '@row' . "\n"
        . ".\n";
eval($f);

# 
@row = ('blah1' x 10, 'blah2' x 10);
write;

output :
