If the CVS uses a comma, you would split on the comma:
split /:/, $line;
As Tom said, if you only want the, say, 4rd field, you can use a RegEx:
$value = $1 if ( $line =~ /^(?:[^,]*,){3}([^,]*),/ );
Unfortunately, this gets messed up if a comma is anywhere present in
any of the fields, or if a field is more than one line (though I have
no idea if that's possible).
There is a CVS module you may want to search for on CPAN.
