Re^2: Making perl evaluate a variable with a string

Hi again I have a template script for another tool. from the template I want generate many scripts with different numerical values (not only replace $a with 1, but also replace in the template script, $a+5 with 6...) So, I have a template script and a variable definintion file which I call with "require" How best to implement? Sure I can do it with =~s/.../ but if I can use perl to make the sub in a native manner ($var) it will be much stronger. Thx, Nir

I am not quite sure if I understand your post right, but before you write your own template engine (I interpret your text that you are up to it), have a look at http://www.perl.com/pub/a/2001/08/21/templating.html and/ or http://perl.apache.org/docs/tutorials/tmpl/comparison/comparison.html k	[reply]
