I like reading these little problems. MA wasn't the only one who learned something here. I hadn't thought of evaluating regexs in list context (says me wondering how many times I've done $a = $1; $b = $2;...) Great stuff. Not sure if the list is a supplement to the books (Learning Perl etc) or the books a supplement to the list. Both good.
