OTOH, I don't see the point in struggling with Text::Balanced, when all you need is:

The example I gave is simple but will become more complex as I keep adding functionality to it. More complex input is yet to come.

Okay, I didn't know. That may justify the use of a not-so-easy-to-use module such as Text::Balanced.

Also, I believe people would frown if they see applications of complex hand written regexes when built in modules can do that work.

At least some would. :)

I tend to try regular expressions at first hand, probably because I feel rather comfortable with the regex syntax. In any case, useful modules are always living options to me.
