I'm a big fan of the (free) material available as part of perldoc. In addition to the basic reference, there are two tutorials (one more basic, the other more detailed). perldoc perlrequick perldoc perlretut perldoc perlre If you don't want to read these in a terminal, you can get pdf versions for printing here: http://perldoc.perl.org/ The book I see cited most often as a standard is Mastering Regular Expressions by Jeffrey Friedl. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://learn.perl.org/
