    I had a very similar question the other day. You can find my complete code on the last post of this thread.

    http://www.perlmonks.org/?node_id=968493

    The cpan utility I used is here. (though there is a way to use grep)

    http://search.cpan.org/dist/Array-Utils/Utils.pm

    Basically you need to open each file and read them into separate arrays. Then cycle through and find the matches.
