You could use something like this:

open MYFILE, "<$filename" or die "can't open the file: $!";
foreach $one_line (<MYFILE>)
{
        push (@lines, $one_line) if $one_line =~ /\S/;
}
close MYFILE;
# now only the non-blank lines are in @lines

Subject: [Perl-unix-users] Remove blank lines from a file


I have a simple question but I have brain lock.

I need to parse a file and remove all blank lines from the file.

Thanks,

Craig
