Re: count of matches

[Kester Allen]

You can also use this bizarre construction to capture just the count:

$_ = ABabcde12345BAABabcde1234blahblah5BA;
$count = () = $_=~ /(AB.*?BA)/g; 
print I matched $count times\n'

the () between the two ='s forces the match to list context, and then
THAT is forced to scalar context by setting it to $count.  Whee!

Re: black box

[Kester Allen]

If you're using ActiveState Perl, an easy was is to use the wperl
executable instead of the perl executable to run your scripts. 
Scripts you want to run w/o the dos box could have a .wpl extension
instead of .pl, and you could associate .wpl with wperl.

Re: RegEx help

[Kester Allen]

There's a fun little idiom using tr/// to count the number of
occurances of a character in a string:

perl -le '$str = a,b,c,d,e; $count = ($str =~ tr/,/,/); print $count'

will output 4, the number of commas in a,b,c,d,e.

 : I wrote a RegEx to let me know if a line of text has exactly 36 commas in
 it (the comma is the separator) and I came up with this. I don't think it
 is quite right. I could use a little pointing in the right direction. Any
 thoughts?

installing PGPLOT.pm on win32

[Kester Allen]

Grettings, All--

Has anyone successfully installed the PGPLOT.pm module on a win32 box?
 I have tried numerous methods, including trying to compile it myself.
 It seems to be beyond my current abilities-- if anyone could take
pity on me and point me to a working install method, I'd be much
obliged.

Thank you,

Kester Allen
