I'm trying to extract a specific data from a
one line file that contains the below information:
## /loc1/loc2/loc3/848xxxxxB01_d_1
while I was able to do it with the code below,
how do I get the same information if the line
had looked like:
## /loc1/loc2/loc3/loc4/848xxxxxB01_d_1
or
## /loc1/848xxxxxB01_d_1
OUTPUT would look like this: 848xxxxxB01_d_bot

Thanks... RCP
#! perl -w
open(MYOUTFILE, ">/tmp/design_name_bot"); open (FILEH, "/tmp/strfile")
+;while (<FILEH>) {
chomp;   if ( /848*/i ) {
  tr/\// /;  tr/_/ /; ($board,$iss) = (split)[4,5]; 
    ($line) = "_"; 
    ($side) = "bot";
open(MYOUTFILE, ">>/tmp/design_name_bot");
print MYOUTFILE "$board$line$iss$line$side\n";
}
}
close(MYOUTFILE);
