Hi, I'd like to register for a home directory at the CPAN's Perl authors/id tree. My name: Hartmut Camphausen email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] www: http://www.creagen.de/ pref. user ID: HCAMP or HARC I would like to upload a Perl module to the CPAN, ESplit.pm. I think it would fit into the Text::-namespace. Description: Esplit.pm, version 1.00 ESplit.pm provides one function, e_split(), to split (sic!) scalar values (AKA strings) at arbitrary characters/strings (may be given as regex). Usefull to deal with CSV data. - Delimiters contained in quoted strings will be ignored, as well as \- escaped delimiters. - Delimiters given in () will be returned as n + 1. elements in the resulting array (like split()). - One can tell e_split() to return only the first n elements - or the last n elements. e_split is 2-5 times faster than Text::ParseWords::parse_line. e_split deals with quoted strings (fields) in a more reasonable way (well, IMHO :-)) than parse_line. e_split deals correctly with mixed qoutes (e.g. double quotes at start of a field, a single one at the end). Any comments and suggestions are highly appreciated. The module can be downloaded from: http://www.creagen.de/downloads/ESplit100.zip The documentation (not complete yet) is available at: http://www.creagen.de/mo_docs/e_split.htm Module list entry: Name: ESplit DSLI: Rd|upf Description: Tokenize strings with possibly quoted tokens Info: ?? ------------------------------------------- CREAGEN Computerkram Hartmut Camphausen Fon: 06424/923826 Kirchstraße 8 Fax: 06424/923827 35043 Marburg Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
