I will be getting a buncha lines and I have them set up to be in order AND with their title. So, for example, I can extract a title using this:
$line =~ s/TITLE#(.*)#/$1/; chomp($1);
and I'd like the output to be:
TITLE DATA-A DATA-B DATA-C
How are you item1 item2 item3
item1a item2b item3c
I am fine item4 item5 item6
WITHOUT HTML...just text output.
So, as you can see a title has at least 1 set of data but maybe more. I can brute force this but there must be an elegant way to do this in perl. Please enlighten me!

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
