I need a Perl one liner which prints a newline into a .txt file, only where the line starts with "/mediawiki-1.19.0/". It should add the newline to the line before.
My problem is, when I try to realize this (with my little knowledge ) i come to the point where the // are making problems.
.txt file
Code:
------------
/mediawiki-1.19.0/index.php/RickJames !!add new line here!!
/mediawiki-1.19.0/index.php/Sabaton
some url
------------
I don't want it to sort or delete anything .
Thanks in advance!

Perl::Critic::Policy::BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitComplexMUsernContributed Perl Perl::Critic::Policy::BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitComplexMappings(3pm)NAME
Perl::Critic::Policy::BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitComplexMappings - Map blocks should have a single statement.
AFFILIATION
This Policy is part of the core Perl::Critic distribution.
DESCRIPTION
The map function can be confusing to novices in the best of circumstances. Mappings with multiple statements are even worse. They're also
a maintainer's nightmare because any added complexity decreases readability precipitously. Why? Because map is traditionally a one-liner
converting one array to another. Trying to cram lots of functionality into a one-liner is a bad idea in general.
The best solutions to a complex mapping are: 1) write a subroutine that performs the manipulation and call that from map; 2) rewrite the
map as a for loop.
CAVEATS
This policy currently misses some compound statements inside of the map. For example, the following code incorrectly does not trigger a
violation:
map { do { foo(); bar() } } @list
CONFIGURATION
By default this policy flags any mappings with more than one statement. While we do not recommend it, you can increase this limit as
follows in a .perlcriticrc file:
[BuiltinFunctions::ProhibitComplexMappings]
max_statements = 2
