I guess it's a fine line between keeping it a perl one liner, or just writing a perl script to boot... I also use awk, particularly for server monitoring stats on Solaris, or any time I am piping output from a Unix box. Out of curiousity, what windows port do you use for awk?

It has a smaller learning curve for those who don't already know Perl, is found on all flavours of Unix, and is available for Windows. Cheers, Stuart.

They are so quick and powerful, and I use them in my shell scripts for manipulating text files as often as I can.
