Well, i'd have to open the perl program and change the !~ op to the =~ op each time i want filtering on a "negated domain".

I could do that, but i prefer a way to express the regex complement directly as a new regex (to be fed to the program). -- And the way to do that was shown by Corion above.

... then again, yes i could modify the GUI with a checkbox indicating "straight/negated", and switch the perl comparison operator accordingly. In the end i guess i was intrigued by the "how to climb it", as a regex...

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.
