E:\>perl -00ne 'push @a,"$_\0$ARGV\n";END{print reverse split/\0/ for sort @a}' file1-obj_prof.out.txt file2-obj_prof.out.txt'
Can't find string terminator "'" anywhere before EOF at -e line 1.
You have 3 single quotes on the line, so they're unbalanced.
'push...
...@a}'
....txt'
Looks like the last one's erroneous.
So the final code should look like?
Sorry I sound dumb, but I am not the expert in this. I would appericate your guidance.
perl -00ne 'push @a,"$_\0$ARGV\n";END{print reverse split/\0/ for sort @a}' file1-obj_prof.out.txt file2-obj_prof.out.txt
The single quote at the far right hand end of the line has gone
HI,
Still get an error:
E:\>perl -00ne 'push @a,"$_\0$ARGV\n";END{print reverse split/\0/ for sort @a}' file1-obj_prof.out.txt file2-obj_prof.out.txt'
Can't find string terminator "'" anywhere before EOF at -e line 1.
Assuming you've just pasted from your terminal, you still have the quote at the end of the line - get rid of it!
Yup, did that, still got an issue:

Can't find string terminator "'" anywhere before EOF at -e line 1.
