hi ,
I am a perl newbie.
Can someone suggest a perl command line snippet that will print the last n
lines of a file.
thanks in advance.
regards,
Kaushik
Kaushik,
If you are on the command line I suggest the use of the tail command.
tail -n 123 filename
If you must perform this operation in perl then do a google search for
perl tail. You will see that the perl solution is vastly more
complicated than the above.
