first, sorry for top post. Second, I am trying to convert my html/pm files
to oop (pm). Can anyone give me some understanding of perl modules and some
examples. Specifically to 'bless()' and a general over view. I have searched
cpan/perl monks etc.

thanks in advance
R.

Subject: Re: array population from system app call

ok so now I can get all elements printed using

        my @ftapes = ( );
        my @ftapes = `evmvol -w label_state=3|grep barcode`;
 
                foreach $_ (@ftapes) {
                print $_ , "\n";
        }

so now I want to use multidimensional arrays using print $ftapes[0,1]
does print $ftapes [0,1] mean print element 0 and element 1 or address 0,1
am I confusing a normal array with a MDarray?

where

[0] is a subscript address so to get the first element I would say print
$ftapes [0]

thanks
