I'm just getting started in Perl and have written up a few lines for a process on my home server(Linux) to write the realtime data into a MySQL Database at a determined interval using a cron job to run it. It takes 58 fields from the realtime.txt file, parses it, and drops it into a table.
If anyone is interested in the details, would be interested in discussing it, or wants to see it and modify the code for their own purposes let me know. I don't want to publish code if it would be wasted. Keep in mind I am still just starting out with Perl, and some things could no doubt be done better. But it works, and is currently recording the data to a Database on schedule.
