in reply to Regex on a array

In general, a regex on an array is best done using grep. Makes your code look better. If you keep your newlines intact, you can do the following. Escape the dot (perlre)! 
print grep{! /<!DOCTYPE XMLDATA SYSTEM \"artist_royalty\.dtd\">/} @lin
+es;

This will do most of your work.

Hope this helps,

    I think that does the opposite.

    Could be wrong, but don't you need: 
    print grep{!/<!DOCTYPE XMLDATA SYSTEM \"artist_royalty\.dtd\">/} @line
+s;
