Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Pulling Data, Then Moving to the Next File Post 302899059 by sudo on Friday 25th of April 2014 06:47:46 PM

This works OK, but the problem is if I run into an error with any one of those extraction programs, the formatting for the rest of the document gets shifted. I tried to remedy this with an if statement entering a placeholder for bad/no matches but it's not bullet proof (shown below).

Any ideas for a stronger formatting structure?

Code:
sed -n '/Date/p' $FILE | egrep -o -m1 "Date:.{17}"
if [ $? -eq 1 ]; then
echo "NODATE"
fi

Email::Sender(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation					Email::Sender(3pm)

NAME
Email::Sender - a library for sending email VERSION
version 0.110005 SYNOPSIS
my $message = Email::MIME->create( ... ); # produce an Email::Abstract compatible message object, # e.g. produced by Email::Simple, Email::MIME, Email::Stuff use Email::Sender::Simple qw(sendmail); use Email::Sender::Transport::SMTP qw(); use Try::Tiny; try { sendmail( $message, { from => $SMTP_ENVELOPE_FROM_ADDRESS, transport => Email::Sender::Transport::SMTP->new({ host => $SMTP_HOSTNAME, port => $SMTP_PORT, }) } ); } catch { warn "sending failed: $_"; }; OVERVIEW
Email::Sender replaces the old and sometimes problematic Email::Send library, which did a decent job at handling very simple email sending tasks, but was not suitable for serious use, for a variety of reasons. Most users will be able to use Email::Sender::Simple to send mail. Users with more specific needs should look at the available Email::Sender::Transport classes. Documentation may be found in Email::Sender::Manual, and new users should start with Email::Sender::Manual::QuickStart. IMPLEMENTING
Email::Sender itelf is a Moose role. Any class that implements Email::Sender is required to provide a method called "send". This method should accept any input that can be understood by Email::Abstract, followed by a hashref containing "to" and "from" arguments to be used as the envelope. The method should return an Email::Sender::Success object on success or throw an Email::Sender::Failure on failure. AUTHOR
