You want to do two things: 1. match/replace something 2. match/replace something else To do this in one command you need: * `:g` to tell P6 to keep going after the first match * `||` to tell P6 to match what's on the left first, or if that fails, what's on the right Which yields: my $x=" State : abc "; $x ~~ s:g/.*?" : "||" ".*//; say "<$x>"; # <abc> On Sat, Sep 23, 2017 at 1:29 AM, ToddAndMargo <toddandma...@zoho.com> wrote:
