perl + split + pipeline
I am using the following program to get the values from the pipeline separated file
But it is not working as i expected.
input file contains :
abcd|efd|adfa|adfASF|AsfF|
i need a output like this :
1 : abcd
2 : efd
3 : adfa
..
..
...
...
if i replace the | (pipe symbol) with , (comma) then it works fine.
please correct the program
thanks in advance
cheers

# do line-by-line processing.
@values = split ('|',$line);
$count =0;
foreach my $val (@values) {
$count++;
print " $count : $val\n";
}

Metacharacters
The patterns used in Perl pattern matching evolved from the ones
supplied in the Version 8 regex routines. (The routines are derived
(distantly) from Henry Spencer's freely redistributable
reimplementation of the V8 routines.) See "Version 8 Regular
Expressions" for details.
In particular the following metacharacters have their standard
egrep-ish meanings:
\ Quote the next metacharacter
^ Match the beginning of the line
. Match any character (except newline)
$ Match the end of the line (or before newline at the end)
| Alternation
() Grouping
[] Character class
