Naturally =~ $re is a bit cleaner, but we can't do that because =~ is smart match, not regex match. > # (?=...) <before: ...> > # (?!...) <!before: ...> > # (?<=...) <after: ...> > # (?<!...) <!after: ...> > > Cute. (Wait a minute, aren't those reversed?) Hehe. I thought that was cool. /foobar<before: snafoo>/ /<after: snafoo> foobar/ You see, foobar before snafoo, which is what it is. After snafoo, foobar. It reads very nicely. Luke
