here's a suggestion - although I did not try it.
[! $expr="[^-]+"; !]
[- $testdata=~m!$expr!go; -]
I also didn't tried it, but it should work this way.
if not - probably can work around it by placing this code in
a separate module and calling it with embperl.
Would work also, but seems
used for purposes not intended to be Embperl...

Christian

embperl escape character?
okay I'm reaching here. something like
]] to indicate - ignore the next embperl character. so something ugly like
[- $testdata=~m![^]]-]+!; -]
could work. but you're right the \55 is much cleaner and easier to read.
