C:\>perl -e "$_='abcde';/./;print "$'",/../,$' cde1cde Is this another 5.6.1'ism (Looks like I'll have to upgrade to 5.8 for "@+" in any case) or was Jasper's solution using some slightly more mystical quoting? I'm still somewhat confused about exactly when objects (like searches or assignments) in a comma-separated lists, arguments to for, etc. get executed. Obviously this is important for Perlgolf, which so often does two or three things at a time. Rather than learn the rules, though, I usually just try all of the permutations I can think of. Which is probably one of many reasons I'm not actually winning these contests. -Amir __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo! DSL - Now only $29.95 per month! http://sbc.yahoo.com
