parse special character in the line
Hi all,
I have a file with some module names as below.
Font::AFM
Data::Grove ---> libxml-perl
Net::LDAP ---> perl-ldap
DBI
XML
....
...
....
and so on ...
The file has some lines with the character " -->" .
Now how can I cut only the last column of the line wherever "-->" is found and keep others as it is in its place.
o/p should be like:
---------------
Font::AFM
libxml-perl
perl-ldap
DBI
XML
...
...
Is there way other than using using
while read line and redirecting the line to some other file? Any simpler means using
sed or
awk ??
Thanks in advance.

xml::grove::path
XML::Grove::Path(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation XML::Grove::Path(3)
NAME
XML::Grove::Path - return the object at a path
SYNOPSIS
use XML::Grove::Path;
# Using at_path method on XML::Grove::Document or XML::Grove::Element:
$xml_obj = $grove_object->at_path("/some/path");
# Using an XML::Grove::Path instance:
$pather = XML::Grove::Path->new();
$xml_obj = $pather->at_path($grove_object);
DESCRIPTION
"XML::Grove::Path" returns XML objects located at paths. Paths are strings of element names or XML object types seperated by slash ("/")
characters. Paths must always start at the grove object passed to `"at_path()"'. "XML::Grove::Path" is not XPath, but it should become
obsolete when an XPath implementation is available.
Paths are like URLs
/html/body/ul/li[4]
/html/body/#pi[2]
The path segments can be element names or object types, the objects types are named using:
#element
#pi
#comment
#text
#cdata
#any
The `"#any"' object type matches any type of object, it is essentially an index into the contents of the parent object.
The `"#text"' object type treats text objects as if they are not normalized. Two consecutive text objects are seperate text objects.
