I'm not entirely sure what you're trying to accomplish, but perhaps
something like:
#! /usr/bin/env perl
use strict;
use warnings;
use 5.010;
my @strings = (
"^Modifications made by Danny Wong (danwong) on 2014/05/06 18:27:48
from database brms" ,
"^Modifications made by danwong on 2014/05/06 18:27:48 from database brms²",
);
foreach my $string ( @strings ) {
say "Matched '$1' in '$string'"
if $string =~ /(danwong)/;
}
