Reply to thread I think I prefer Perl for this kind of thing - the example where pairs of [10]s are changed to [10], what happens if you have 4 [10]s? Do you get 1 [10], 2[10]s (it depends on whether it starts the search from the start, or from the last change)? With Perl, you'd do ~s:n{2,}:n:; which, to me, is a lot clearer as to what happens. But then I have read "Mastering Regular Expressions" quite thoroughly Obviously I could try it out, but I'm in the office, and my RiscPC is sitting at home... tribbles2 on 8/9/03 5:12PM [ Reply | Permalink | Report ] Please login before posting a comment.
