i'm having trouble understanding exactly what you're looking for, but for my best guess, i'd suggest the following: my @lines = split("\n", $paragraph); for (my $i = 0; $i <= scalar(@lines) - 1; $i++) { echo "$line[$i]\n"; } -- if we teach our children by example, we only have ourselves to blame for what they become - unknown -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
