On a slight tangent, is anyone else interested in the idea of (as an experiment) hacking perl to use the PCRE library in place of its built-in engine? I don't think it would be all that hard.
It took me a week to hack three new operators into toke.c and perly.y and add the corresponding opcodes, and Perl's tokenizer is second only to its regex engine in how difficult it is to modify. In other words, have fun--the sane people will watch from a safe distance. :^)

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).
