Hello, can you guys show me how to convert each non-alphanumeric
character in a string to a space, and then convert any number of
consecutive spaces in the string to a single space?

If I need to specify exactly which characters I want converted to
spaces, I'd be happy with just the "." character.

Hi Grant.

$text =~ s/[^[:alnum:]]/ /g;
$text =~ s/\s+/ /g;

will do what you want.

Rob
