Is grep (or better: egrep) a good starting point for examples? or:
perl -ne 'print if /xyz/' file
In my "Introduction into Perl" (available in German at my Homepage - Talks called "Einführung in Perl" -> PDF), I try to give an introduction into REs at the end, and with some additional examples (e.g. how to check a date or ip address) we try to build together most of the pupils understand it rather fast. If you want to use it (and perhaps translate it), go on
Best regards,
perl -e "s>>*F>e=>y)\*martinF)stronat)=>print,print v8.8.8.32.11.32"

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
