Re: Find line before blank
summer cherry,
here is what I ended up with in my script:
#!/usr/bin/perl
open $fh,"<","myfile";
open $out,">>","mynewfile";
undef $/;
$str=<$fh>;
print $out split(/\n^$\n^$\n/s,$str,2)[0];
I got the error message below. Any ideas? I appreciate the help.
syntax error at ansipre2 line 7, near ")["
Execution of ansipre2 aborted due to compilation errors.

print
print(9E) Driver Entry Points print(9E)
NAME
print - display a driver message on system console
SYNOPSIS
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <sys/errno.h>
#include <sys/ddi.h>
#include <sys/sunddi.h>
int prefixprint(dev_t dev, char *str);
INTERFACE LEVEL
Architecture independent level 1 (DDI/DKI). This entry point is required for block devices.
PARAMETERS
dev Device number.
str Pointer to a character string describing the problem.
DESCRIPTION
The print() routine is called by the kernel when it has detected an exceptional condition (such as out of space) in the device. To display
the message on the console, the driver should use the cmn_err(9F) kernel function. The driver should print the message along with any
driver specific information.
RETURN VALUES
The print() routine should return 0 for success, or the appropriate error number. The print routine can fail if the driver implemented a
non-standard print() routine that attempted to perform error logging, but was unable to complete the logging for whatever reason.
