Hello I know "/" is a special character for regex, which should be escaped. But if I put "/" in a variable and use the variable in regex, then it doesn't need the explicit escape. Like this one: $ perl -le '$delimiter="/"; $str="hello/world/buddy"; @list=split/$delimiter/,$str;print "@list"' hello world buddy Am I right? thank you. -- Simple Mail https://simplemail.co.in/Thread Next
