extracting text and reusing the text to rename file
Hi,
I have some ps files where I want to ectract/copy a certain number from and use that number to rename the ps file.
eg:
'file.ps' contains following text:
14 (09 01 932688 0)t
the text can be variable, the only fixed element is the '14 ('. The problem is that the fixed element can appear elsewhere, not followed by a number (eg.14 (Telefoonnummer)t)
The number can appear several times in the file, so I only would like to use the firts occurrence.
So basicaly it comes to that:
file.ps needs to change to 09 01 932688 0.ps
Can someone help me with that?
Tnx in advance,
John

xml::parser::style::stream
Parser::Style::Stream(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Parser::Style::Stream(3)
NAME
XML::Parser::Style::Stream - Stream style for XML::Parser
SYNOPSIS
use XML::Parser;
my $p = XML::Parser->new(Style => 'Stream', Pkg => 'MySubs');
$p->parsefile('foo.xml');
{
package MySubs;
sub StartTag {
my ($e, $name) = @_;
# do something with start tags
}
sub EndTag {
my ($e, $name) = @_;
# do something with end tags
}
sub Characters {
my ($e, $data) = @_;
# do something with text nodes
}
}
DESCRIPTION
This style uses the Pkg option to find subs in a given package to call for each event. If none of the subs that this style looks for is
there, then the effect of parsing with this style is to print a canonical copy of the document without comments or declarations. All the
subs receive as their 1st parameter the Expat instance for the document they're parsing.
It looks for the following routines:
o StartDocument
Called at the start of the parse .
o StartTag
Called for every start tag with a second parameter of the element type. The $_ variable will contain a copy of the tag and the %_
variable will contain attribute values supplied for that element.
o EndTag
Called for every end tag with a second parameter of the element type. The $_ variable will contain a copy of the end tag.
o Text
Called just before start or end tags with accumulated non-markup text in the $_ variable.
o PI
Called for processing instructions. The $_ variable will contain a copy of the PI and the target and data are sent as 2nd and 3rd
parameters respectively.
o EndDocument
Called at conclusion of the parse.
