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?

Thanks,
Debbie
