Whether or not the grep function is useful, depends on how you want to process the result. A more frequently used solution is, however, to loop through the file and apply your regex to each line. Note that the pattern matching operator in Perl is =~ (See perldoc perlop) BTW, your regexp doesn't fulfil the condition "ends in a whitespace", because the word string might also be terminated, for instance, by a dot, comma, or uppercase letter (for this reason, your example string ".... %Get_This123 ..." would not match).
