Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Tailing 2 or more log files simultaneously PERL Post 302309415 by giannicello on Tuesday 21st of April 2009 08:57:07 PM

Not sure how to do it in perl but in shell scripting, I'd create a function that would read/parse the file:

Code:
parseFile () {
  fileNm=$1
  do something...
}

then I would call the function all at once in the script...

Code:
parseFile "file1" &
parseFile "file2" &
parseFile "file3" &

wait

etc.
