Hi Shlomi,

thanks for explaining the difference between Perl's and formal regular expressions (and for the rest of your post). I actually do know what formal regular expressions are, but your explanation was illuminating even if you didn't think my jokes were funny.

I do just want to point out that the blog post you dug up (I did too!) was Simon's, not mine.

Hi Michael,

I'm joining this thread late.

First of all I'd like to note that I found the original article (maybe it's
more of a blog post) on O'ReillyNet, which I only skimmed, to be mostly
factual, and correct and I'm saying this as an active Perl programmer and
contributor to the Perl ecosystem (including the Perl core and
CPAN - https://metacpan.org/author/SHLOMIF ) who knows a little about the
proper way to do things and been helping or trying to help people with their
Perl problems on various Perl-specific forums.

Otherwise, I believe your message was information and insightful. Some nitpicks.
