Ramesh, Here they have used '|' as a delimiter because already they are using the metacharacter '/' in the find pattern. In order to avoid backslashing the metacharacter '/' , they have used '|' as delimiter.
Regards, Prasad ""Ankam, Ramesh Babu"" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message news:[EMAIL PROTECTED] .. Hi, Can any one please tell me what this pattern means " s|.*/|| ". Is it that '|' represents '/'. Please reply me soon.
