This looks like a fixed length record. You could use
unpack. While the following 'demonstrates' the idea it's probably not the best use of unpack (e.g. there's a floating point number). Your best bet would be to ask another question to find an elegant use of
unpack.
#!/bin/perl5
use strict;
use warnings;
my @history = <DATA>;
for my $record (@history){
print "$record\n";
$record =~ s/^\s*//;
my @fields = unpack "a21 a9 a9 a2 a13 a8 a9 a9 a4 a5 a6", $record;
for my $field (@fields){
print "*$field*\n";
}
}
__DATA__
AP040003EZ9891783 61125 N BX 108.0
+0000 03196 00000 D Y B
BP041303DD554 009J0 N BX 8.7
+5000 03168 62 00000 Y W
When you've cracked it you could probably apply it to the other records as well.
