Amaury Forgeot d'Arc added the comment: In the previous samples we forgot the /g option needed to match ALL occurrences of the pattern:
""" use Data::Dumper; $a = "a\nb\nc"; $a =~ s/$/#/g; print Dumper($a); $a = "a\nb\n"; $a =~ s/$/#/g; print Dumper($a); """ Which now gives the same output as Python: $VAR1 = 'a b c#'; $VAR1 = 'a b# #'; Perl is too difficult for us ;-) What shall we do? - mark the issue as invalid - diverge from Perl regular expressions - file a bug in the PCRE issue tracker And in every case: add these samples to the test suite. __________________________________ 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
