in reply to Need help to convert short c shell script to perl

Dearest Monk,
First let me start off by welcoming you to the Monastery and congratulate you on your very first post. That being said:

Let me recommend that you visit Tutorials and in particular there are three particular pages you should read.

Once you have a handle on how we do things here at the Monastery you could also take a look at Perl Babysteps 1: Your First Simple Script.

Normally we like to see folks actually attempt to do their own work first and then ask questions when they have an issue getting it to work. The script you show above is a fairly simple script to convert with more than one way to go about it. Give it a shot and then check in with us if it doesn't work.
