Hi Perlgurus,
I am having trouble getting the data I want out of a text file: The file has
this sturcture:
File Name: m:\a\a084099.jpg
Width x Height: 2480 x 2062
Number of Colours: True Colour (24 bits)
Dots per inch: 300 x 300
Image size (inches): 8.27 x 6.87
Raw size: 15341280 Actual size: 1203289 (Compression ratio: 12.8:1)
There a thousand or so entries. Each entry is separated by a blank new line.
I want to get just the file name and the last line. My troulbe is I can't
manage to parse it correctly. The best I have been able to get is:
m:\a\a084100.jpg Uncompressed Size: 15341280 Actual size: 1203289
m:\a\a084100.jpg Uncompressed Size: 15341280 Actual size: 1203289
m:\a\a084100.jpg Uncompressed Size: 15341280 Actual size: 1203289
m:\a\a084100.jpg Uncompressed Size: 15341280 Actual size: 1203289
m:\a\a084100.jpg Uncompressed Size: 15341280 Actual size: 1203289
m:\a\a084100.jpg Uncompressed Size: 15006480 Actual size: 1251205
m:\a\a084100.jpg Uncompressed Size: 15006480 Actual size: 1251205
The lines get repeated 7 times before getting the next entry. I used:
while (<REPORT>) {
if (/File/gc) { # I tried with or without gc but it made no
difference.
$name = $';
chomp($name);
($file = $name) =~ s/ Name: //;
}
if (/Raw/) {
$size = $';
chomp($size);
($foo = $size) =~ s/\((Compression...*)//;
($bar = $foo) =~ s/size/Uncompressed Size/;
}
print OUTPUT "$file $bar \n";
Can anyone help?
Dp.
