This works but I have another question: If there is another field, say "Desc" with a value that is space delimited, how can I put the entire value into a variable.
Example: 
[  
ID:        456
Desc:      This is a test job
Start:     /complete/success.1  /complete/success.2  /tmp/file.3
Done:      /complete/success.3  /complete/success.4
]

The code currently splits all by space so only the first word is in the value.
E.g.
my ($desc) = @{$record{'Desc:'}};
$desc will only contain the word "This " and not the full value of "This is a test job".
What is the best way to solve this?
