Hi there,
You can use any (non-alphanumeric, non-whitespace) character you like for
this operator, as long as you use the same one throughout the expression.
And it can either be repeated three times, like s/a/b/ or s#a#b#, or in two
pairs, like s{a}{b} or s[a][b]. (Actually I think that if you use pairs,
the two pairs can be different from each other, like s[a]{b}. But that
would most likely be unnecessarily confusing ;-)
best,
Mo
