in reply to Script issue involves File Handling.

Another variant:

#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; # 798719 print "Wrestlername Crowdreaction Specialmove\n"; while ( <DATA> ) { print join("\t", split(/\|/)); } __DATA__ The Rock|Cheer|Rock Bottom Triple H|Boo|Pedigree Stone Cold|Cheer|Stone Cold Stunner

However, toolic's output is more readable. Tabular output from the above suffers because the field_lengths are so uneven:

Wrestlername Crowdreaction Specialmove The Rock Cheer Rock Bottom Triple H Boo Pedigree Stone Cold Cheer Stone Cold Stunner

    I usually reach for Text::Table for nicely formatted tables.
