Selecting out rows of numbers

Not sure how you are using Perl, but I suspect you could use one of the following regex strings to select these lines.  The first just matches the lines you want.  The second makes each of the 6 numbers a token that you could then reference in the Perl logic.

^[0-9]+\s+[0-9]+\s+[0-9]+\s+[0-9]+\s+[0-9]+\s+[0-9]+$

^([0-9]+)\s+([0-9]+)\s+([0-9]+)\s+([0-9]+)\s+([0-9]+)\s+([0-9]+)$

THanks Bill. I am using PERL from the command line, so if you could give me some code to parse out the required Rows and write them to a text file, thatd be great :)

If you are just trying to select the desired lines, why not just use grep?
