Maybe something like this:

Code:
#!/usr/bin/env perl
# shuffler.pl

use strict;
use warnings;

use List::Util qw(shuffle);

while(<>) {
    chomp;
    my @line = split ",";
    @line = shuffle @line;
    print join(",", @line), "\n";
}

Save as shuffler.pl
Run as perl shuffler.pl martinsmith.file

If you need it as a one-liner.
Code:
perl -MList::Util=shuffle -nlaF"," -e 'print join ",", (shuffle @F)' martinsmith.file

NAME
manx - a list of Manx Gaelic words DESCRIPTION
/usr/share/dict/manx is an ASCII file which contains an alphabetic list of words, one per line. FILES
/etc/dictionaries-common/words is a symbolic link to a /usr/share/dict/<language> file. /usr/share/dict/words is a symbolic link to /etc/dictionaries-common/words, and is the name by which other software should refer to the system word list. See select-default- wordlist(8) for more information. The directory /usr/share/dict can contain word lists for many languages, with name of the language in English, e.g., /usr/share/dict/french and /usr/share/dict/danish contain respectively lists of French and Danish words if they exist. Such lists should be coded using the ISO 8859-1 character set encoding. SEE ALSO
ispell(1), select-default-wordlist(8), and the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard. HISTORY
The words lists are not specific, and may be generated from any number of sources. The system word list used to be /usr/dict/words. For compatibility, software should check that location if /usr/share/dict/words does not exist. AUTHOR
Word lists are collected and maintained by various authors. Linux 16 July 2002 WORDS(5)
