Hi,
I've got a script that reads in the contents of a file and then
parses out the
interesting bits for later use. One of the interesting bits is a key
value pair
that's the root to a directory which I'll need to access. It looks
like so:
Root: C:\path\with\new\content
The problem is the part of the path is being interpreted as having a
newline
in it. (...\new\content).
foreach (@file) {
chomp;
if(/^Root:/) {
m/^Root:\s+(.*)$/;
$root = $1;
$root =~ s/\\/\//; # change backslash to forward.
}
}
Even after using the substitute backslash to forward slash I still
end up
with this:
C:/path/with\new/content
^^
Any ideas on how to treat the "\n" as just characters and not a newline?
Thanks!
Carter.
