Question It works :)

Thanks,

Code:
sed '...filtering...' filename | while read line
do
  flog "$line"
done

Works perfectly Smilie

However this also works but at the end of printing it'll print an additional line telling file not found.
Code:
while read line ; do
    flog "${line}"
done < <(sed '...filtering...'  filename)

String::Flogger(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				      String::Flogger(3pm)

NAME
String::Flogger - string munging for loggers VERSION
version 1.101242 SYNOPSIS
use String::Flogger qw(flog); my @inputs = ( 'simple!', [ 'slightly %s complex', 'more' ], [ 'and inline some data: %s', { look => 'data!' } ], [ 'and we can defer evaluation of %s if we want', sub { 'stuff' } ], sub { 'while avoiding sprintfiness, if needed' }, ); say flog($_) for @inputs; The above will output: simple! slightly more complex and inline some data: {{{ "look": "data!" }}} and we can defer evaluation of stuff if we want while avoiding sprintfiness, if needed METHODS
flog This method is described in the synopsis. format_string $flogger->format_string($fmt, @input); This method is used to take the formatted arguments for a format string (when "flog" is passed an arrayref) and turn it into a string. By default, it just uses ""sprintf" in perlfunc". AUTHOR
