Oups? It's just a bad choosen example; I should not have used a reserved word as string content (I realized it after having sent my post) Its simply a regex which deletes the first occurance of the string "delete" in $_ ; it's the same as $_=~s/delete//; example: bash-2.05b$ perl use warnings; use strict; my $a="this is deletea string"; $a=~s{delete}{}; print $a,"\n"; # this prints: this is a string greetings joe > [...] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
