Thank you dear Stefano,

i am aware of this module, it works great.

But my problem is, what clever regex to use, in order to identify if a
subfield's content, is an ISSN number. Say our mrc has ISSN numbers thrown
in any tag you could imagine...

So my approach, would be, to search the whole mrc, but i do non know which
regex to use...

>           -f   comma separated list of fields to print
>           -o   output format "marc" | "line" | "INLINE"
>           -s   separator string for condition, default ","
