We're only matching ONE character at a time:
@all_chars = $str =~ /./sg;
@all_ws = $str =~ /\s/g;
@all_non_ws = $str =~ /\S/g;
If we use split(), then we want to split on \s*:
@all_non_ws = split /\s*/, $str;

The book should be completed before the year is out, so it should be on
the shelves in early 2002. Until then, you can always view the book's
