All,

I have a cli command and the output looks like the following: 

fabx-t160: [ggurudut] [UNAN/OWNR] [C2] [kelrod]
   navicli chglun -l 3 -name "newname" doesn't work
fabx-t161: [dozone] [UNAN/OWNR] [C2] [dchoi]
   The GUI needs to hide the CPP SEs from the unimported list
fabx-t162: [haurora] [UNAN/OWNR] [C1] [glade]
   Cisco hardware related bug :idprom error on cisco switch on loading
+ 0.1.5.5
   salagent

The 1st line has ticket#, customer, status, priority,owner and the second line is a summary.

I would like parse this output and build a array of hashes with the keys mentioned above. For example from the last record above (syntax may be wrong); 

$myarray[0] = ( 'ticket#' => 'fabx-t162:',
                'customer' => '[haurora],
                'status' => '[UNAN/OWNR]',
                'priority' => '[C1]',
                'owner' => '[glade]',
                'summary' => 'Cisco hardware related bug :idprom error
+ on cisco switch on loading 0.1.5.5
   salagent'  );

I've never parsed output where I'm trying to gather information from multiple lines. I can't really split on spaces because the summary could have spaces. So, I'm a little lost on how I get started.

Any thoughts on this ?

Thanks a bunch all.
