Problem in a perl script

Hi All

I have to modify a existing perl script

The context of the input txt file has changed
Basically I have to remove 4 lines from the top of the file and print a number
Of fields into another file and feed the out put back into the script. Now I’m doing this part manually
Using
Code:
gawk -F"," '{print $1"-"$2,",",$3,",",$11 >> "new.file"}' file2


is there a perl equivalent to this gwak and I have to use gwak because some of
the records are to long

thankyou
