Thank you all! Algorithm::EquivalenceSets is perfect.

Unfortunately I broke it when trying to install with CPAN. Devel::CheckOS is a pre-req and I think I accidentally hit "no" when I should have hit "yes" (it asked if I was running unix directly after asking if I was running linux! how was I supposed to know the correct answer was "yes"??). Anyway, now it won't let me install it. "clean Devel::CheckOS" doesn't appear to work. Oh well, I'll figure it out eventually. Thanks again for all your help.

    You can try cd ~/.cpan/build/Devel-CheckOS* then perl Makefile.PL. This should take you through the set of questions again and let you set it up right. I just accepted all the defaults, despite wondering whether Linux is Unix. Then the usual make, make test and make install.

      Thanks ig, got it working. Thank you again for all your help, there is very little more satisfying than changing 15+ lines of confusing code into 2 clear ones ;-)
