new line after comma	Can't Post

I use the code below to output the attached output. My question is if there are multiple hits separated by a comma, how can they be each a new row?
For example,
chr2 39222264 39222264 - A 39222271 G 39222507 T 39222423 would be:
chr2 39222264 39222264 - A 39222271
chr2 39222264 39222264 - G 39222507
chr2 39222264 39222264 - T 39222423

Code

cat sequences_4homopolymers.txt | perl -aF/\\t/ -lne '($chr,$st)=$F[0]=~/(chr\w+)\:(\d+)/ && ($1, $2);%k=map $F[1]=~m/$_{4}/i?($_,length($`)):(), qw(A G C T); print join("\t",$chr,$st,$st,"-",map "$_\t".($st+$k{$_}),sort keys %k)' >4hp.txt

Thank you.

I see no commas in your input or desired output. There are only tabs in your sample file '4hp.txt'.

I believe that 4php.txt contains neither he input nor the desired output. It is the output of the very long one-liner in the original post. The example in the post shows one line from 4php.txt and the same data the way it should be printed.

The new fields and newlines must be added to the map block in the print statement. I will not attempt to post an untested version and testing is impossible without an input file.

I strongly recommend against implementing this task as a one-liner. A well formatted (and possibly commented) script would be a huge first step toward making the required changes.
Good Luck,
Bill

I believe that I have reverse engineered an input file (see attached file in.txt) which corresponds to lines 1 and 6 of 4hp.txt. Note: 'x' is used to represent characters that I cannot infer. The following script processes it into the specified form.

Code

#!perl -nlaF/\t/ 
use strict; 
use warnings; 
my ( $chr, $st ) = $F[0] =~ /(chr\w+)\:(\d+)/; 
my %k = map $F[1] =~ m/$_{4}/i ? ( $_, length($`) ) : (), qw(A G C T); 
 
foreach (sort keys %k){ 
    local $, = "\t"; 
    print $chr, $st, $st, '-', $_, ($st + $k{$_}); 
}

OUTPUT:

Code

chr1 15251156 15251156 - A 15251257
chr1 15251156 15251156 - T 15251216
chr2 39212965 39212965 - A 39213290
chr2 39212965 39212965 - G 39213202
chr2 39212965 39212965 - T 39213033

Code

Good Luck, 
Bill
