Hi to all, I feel myself very stupid, but I've tried to do it in different ways and I cannot do it. I need to clear a text, to tokenize it, for instance to delete some things and to transform some others: .. at this time I use this regexp: a) to delete s/=+\n//g; s/-+\n//g;
b) to transform s/-+/-/g; s/\*+/\*/g; s/\^+/\^/g; s/\_+/\_/g; s/ +/ /g; (this one doesn't works very well: at the end there are several blank spaces) and I used this one: s/\s+/ /g; but I understand this is not very useful: I need to change a multiple \n|\r|\t|\f in a single \n|\r|\t|\f. BUT, when I try to create an array (@tochange = ("-", "\*", "\^", "\n", "\t","\r","\f","\+","\_","="," "); and I also used a my $tochange="...";) the regexp s/$tochange+/$tochange/g; does not work. May you help me? Thanks a lot! adr -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
