I need to replace the tab delimited headings in a text file so that I end up with shorter (lengthwise) headings. I have headings like the following:
Heading_1,122 <tab> Heading_2,122 <tab> AnotherHeading_1,1 .......... I want to replace these headings with something like the following: x1 <tab> x2 <tab>.... and so on but I need to keep some kind of file that cross references x1 with Heading_1,122. Is this something that Perl can handle?
