Heres a multi-line regex from tom christiansen on FMTEYEWTK
http://www.perl.com/doc/FMTEYEWTK/regexps.html
while (
m{ # m{foo} is like /foo/, but helps vi's
% key
\b # first find a word boundary
(\w+) # followed by the biggest word we can
find
# which we'll save in the \1 buffer
(
\s+ # now have some white space following
it
\1 # and the word itself
)+ # repeat the space+word combo ad
libitum
\b # make sure there's a boundary at the
end too
}xgi # /x for space/comment-expanded
patterns
# /g for global matching
# /i for case-insensitive matching

No, you didn't miss anything--I did. The code I posted doesn't do
that.
You'll have to figure out how to do a multi-line regex--I know it's
possible,
just not how to do so offhand.
Perl gurus?
