I am having a problem trying to get my head around how to do what I need to do.
I am using Net::FTP and have connected to a DG Mainframe. What I want to do is list in the files and stats using a $ftp->dir(path).
The problem is that when DG's returns the data it is like this
GS_ERROR_LOG UDF 20-May-01 0:56:18 1958 
FTPA.22_50_22.MDM 
PRV 8-May-01 22:50:22 772096

As you can see, when the 2nd filename is listed, because it is over a predefined length, it wraps the stats to the next line. I need to put the stats in a hash. I cant get my head around how to do this easily.
Please help me!
