A Perl Script Fixed

I need two Perl scripts to be debugged/fixed. The task is based on analysis of syslog files. The first script loads keywords from a file and then parses the syslog file for lines containing those keywords. The lines are saved to a new file after being reformated; the keyword at the start surrounded by asterix (**), followed by the hostname, timestamp, then data, with all duplicate words removed. I have done this script and it is working but somewhat poorly, with my regular expression being printed into the output file! It needs to rely on a regex. The second script takes the file created from script 1 and sorts the lines based on alphabetical order of keywords (e.g **A** ... ... ... **B** ... ... ...), delete duplicate lines, and then any identical lines apart from differences in time and date should be merged, showing the number of merged lines after Hostname of the logging system (preceded by a hash) and the date-time field converted to <start date> - <end-date>. I have written the second script but it could use improvement. Needs to be completed within a day! Thank you!

Dear Sir, I have rich experiences in Perl: 1. A GUI application on Linux to back up and restore file system. In basic mode this application backs up predefined items by a single click; in advanced everything can be configured, such as destination folder, follow links or not, etc. It supports delta backup, viewing, extracting any folder/file in an archive file before restore. Developed in Perl. 2. A source code build system to build C/C++/Java code on different platforms(Linux, Solaris, Windows) and generate installer packages using universal configurations. It supports gcc, Sun CC, java compiler, Microsoft C/C++ compilers, and Intel c/c++ compilers. Developed in Perl. 3. A Continuous Integration system. Users can log in a web site with there Linux credential to start building source code on their own branch, deployment on target machines(Linux/Windows), test and report on demand. A public branch is built and tested automatically everyday. Developed in Perl/Shell. 4. A makefile parser. With this tool user can search for value and definition for any symbol in a makefile and all makefiles included within it. Don't hesitate to contact me for further discuss, I am available 7 days a week. Thanks!
