NEED HELP with LINUX!

Please write a perl script, searchone.pl, that will search a given data file for a given pattern. Both the search pattern and the search file name should be provided from the command line as follow:

searchone.pl search-pattern search-file

Examples (Lab 9, questions 1 to 3) or the followings

$ ./searchone.pl pop /etc/services

$ ./searchone.pl imap /etc/services

You might want to review Examples 2.1 to 2.3 in Lab 9 before coming up your script searchone.pl

Please test your script to make sure it displays the same information as you used grep for those search patterns and the file in Lab 9.

Example 2.1: read a file name from the command line and then display the files content:

$ cat > lab9b.pl #!/usr/bin/perl -w

open(FILE,$ARGV[0]) or die("Could not open the file $ARGV[0]");

while ( $line = ) {

print $line;

}

close(FILE);

Example 2.2: read a file name from the command line and then display the files content based on a pattern search:

$ cat > lab9b2.pl

#!/usr/bin/perl -w

open(FILE,$ARGV[0]) or die("Could not open the file $ARGV[0]");

while ( $line = ) {

if ( $line =~ /bash/ ) {

print $line;

}

}

close(FILE);

Example 2.3: read a file name and a pattern from the command line and then display the files content based on a search of the pattern:

$ cat > lab9b3.pl #!/usr/bin/perl -w

open(FILE,$ARGV[0]) or die("Could not open the file $ARGV[0]");

while ( $line = ) {

if ( $line =~ /$ARGV[1]/ )

{

print $line;

}

close(FILE)
