( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

After some CB conversation, I decided to add the following information.

First of all - ignore the $curr->[STYLE].":". style bit which is from elsewhere in the code and not relevant here.

Secondly, the following is how it works. Please try to work it out before reading this, otherwise you don't help me. :)

I'm using a hash slice and a join to create a property map for the letters. If @letter is qw(F o o comma b a are) then after the hash slice and join I get "LLLXLLL". The regex splits this into qw(LLL X LLL), which is what map iterates over. The length of each of those matches controls the number of elements spliced off the front of @letter.

Update: these are then joined together so @letter_seq ends up as ("F,o,o", "comma", "b,a,are").

Makeshifts last the longest.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • 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).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
