So as sample code the sub becomes:
sub ProcessEntry
{
my $heading = shift;
my @lines = @_;
print "Heading is: $heading\n";
print "middle lines are:\n";
print " $lines[$_]\n" for (0..(@lines-2));
print "Last line is: $lines[-1]\n\n";
}
Which prints:
Heading is: 1. This string can be modified using only regexes
middle lines are:
-These strings
-Need to be
-put into an
Last line is: -array
Heading is: 2.Here's another string needs only regexes
middle lines are:
-But here are more
-strings which
Last line is: -I want arrayed
Obviously you can replace the print lines with whatever you require, but that should suffice to show you how to access the various lines.
