Perl Help - Split a string (UK based)

[Monkey]

Hi,

Just coming back to perl after some time off, I think I need to use the split funtion.

I want to convert $username=FEL\m att.honston, to $username=matt. honston and remove or split the FEL\ from the string (yes I'm using the whoaim command in XP)

I know I need to use the split function, but just can't to remember the syntax.


Thanks,

Monkey :)
