Hi, Tiago!
I can't reproduce such behaviour
use Modern::Perl '2014';
my $string = 'Crosses misses=50 ';
my (@matches) = ($string =~ /(Crosses)(.*)(misses=)(\d+)/s);
use Data::Dumper;
print Dumper \@matches;
result:
$VAR1 = [
'Crosses',
' ',
'misses=',
'50'
];
As you see, no tabs in $matches[3];
Please, publish string that you try to parse with this regexp.
