Amaury Forgeot d'Arc added the comment: Careful, Perl strings must be double-quoted for \n to be understood as the newline character:
""" use Data::Dumper; $a = "a\nb\nc"; $a =~ s/$/#/; print Dumper($a); $a = "a\nb\n"; $a =~ s/$/#/; print Dumper($a); """ And the output is: $VAR1 = 'a b c#'; $VAR1 = 'a b# '; Which is definitely different from python output. __________________________________ Tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1761> __________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
