if I have my $str = 'aw bcdefaw e a rt zzz kjkjkjaw qa' ;
If I wish to replace everything between 'a' and 'zzz' With 'TXT' I do
$str=~s/a[^a]+zzz/aTXTzzz/; This works fine.
Now if I wish to replace everything between 'aw' and 'zzz' with 'TXT' I am not able to use
$str=~s/aw[^(aw)]+zzz/awTXTzzz/;
I know I can use $str=~s/^(.*)aw.*?zzz/$1awTXTzzz/s;
But this seems to be a very untidy way beacuse In my real program $str is an entire file in a string and could be a very long one
Is there a better way Thanks Ram
