Perl One Liner, Splitting output to two different files

Code:
perl -lne 'open G, ">op1.txt" if ($.== 1); /PACK:(.+?)UNPACK:(.{1,20})/; print $1; print G $2' t > op.txt

Here's a Perl solution. I have not found an elegant way to make perl divvy up STDOUT to multiple files on the command line in the way awk does. Smilie
