$MATCH is empty :(
Because you should be using something like:
BOZOS=`perl -0777 -pe 's:\n+:|:g;s:[\s|]+$::;' /u/halyava/.bozos`
Just tried it. No, $MATCH is empty anyway :( Recepie works, but
$MATCH is empty.
Try putting parens around the variable expansion:
* $ (^From:|by|from).*\/(${BOZOS})
The alternations (|'s) in the variable's expansion have lower precedence
than the \/ token, so MATCH will only be set iff it's the first of the
possible alternations that is chosen.
Thanks. This works :)
