Thank you Athanasius for your input and sample script, it works, but I have an issue with the formatting. the line below
print "Enter the plain text password for $name, ", "password is currently '$password'\n";
print out the entire line but I want only the name and password to show up it shows
Enter the plain text password for "Q9" Type="Container" Expanded="True +" Descr="" Icon="mRemote" Panel="General" Username="" Domain="", pass +word is currently '""'
I tried the following to just get the name and password only but it only returns 0 and 1 lol
my @names = grep /\bName=(.*?)/ , @array; my @password = grep /\bPassword=(.*?)/ , @array; my $newline = $line; # Make a copy print "name is $names[0] and password is $password[0]\n";
Also can you please tell me what the following means from your code.
?:\s+|$) /mgx also Q$password\E}
