in reply to using split on a file

You can try something like this: LOOP: while (<INFILE>) { next LOOP if /^%/; #process segment here } That'll process for any line that doesn't start with a %. Egg, YAPH-and-BOFH-wannabe

    D'oh! Sorry about the lack of formatting on that one. It should have read 

    LOOP:  while (<INFILE>) {
    next LOOP if /^%/;
    #process segment here
}

    Hope this helps, and that it shows up right this time.
