Hi Larry,

      How did you get thee "«" character to appear?  And
what does it mean?


The way I type them is [compose] [<] [<], which is nice because their
ASCII equivalent is <<

It means match a word boundary with the word being on the right side.

     > say 'ABC DEF ' ~~ m:g/ << . /
     (「A」 「D」)
     > say 'ABC DEF ' ~~ m:g/ >> . /
     (「 」 「 」)



$ p6 'my $x = "01.000.103.006.10"; $x ~~ s:g/<<0+)>\d//; say "$x"'
1.0.103.6.10

Thank you!
