First off, "perldoc perlre" is a good place to start. What do you have so far?
Does something like /\b1337\b/ work? Or am I taking you too literally? -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Gaffney [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 23, 2005 5:52 PM To: beginners@perl.org Subject: regex for l33t speak I'm trying to come up with a regex for my IRC bot that detects 1337 (in order to kick them from the channel). I can't seem to come up with one that will have few false positives but also work most of the time. Has anyone done something like this before? Does anyone have any suggestions? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
