Re^2: Parse structured text using regex

Thanks for help. I see that split needs to be in it somewhere. What I got from that is:

[
  [["global_model", "CAR"]],
  [
    [
      "pairs",
      "\nMODEL",
      "Make=Mustang",
      "Quality=A",
      "Speed=\nMODEL",
      "Chevy=Cavalier\nMODEL\n",
      "Color=blue",
      "type=hatchback",
      "crashrating=spectacular\n",
      "explodes=true",
      "speed=",
      "storage=none,little\n",
    ],
  ],
]

What I am looking for is this:


{
  CAR => [
           { MODEL => { Make => "Mustang", Quality => "A", Speed => un
+def } },
           { MODEL => { Chevy => "Cavalier" } },
           {
             MODEL => {
               Color       => "Blue",
               crashrating => "spectacular",
               explodes    => "true",
               speed       => undef,
               storage     => "none,little",
               type        => "hatchback",
             },
           },
         ],
}

Maybe I am missing something...?

"What I am looking for is this: `{ ... }`" That should have appeared in your OP, not here. You've been here almost two years and, by now, should have read "How do I post a question effectively?". Please follow its guidelines in any future postings. -- Ken	[reply] [d/l]

Yes, I have been here for two years. So I know to not be deterred by a Senior Monk indiscriminately linking to "How to post a question effectively" What does the word "parse" mean? brian's Guide to Answering Questions My most common answer to a question about Perl is: To Answer, Or Not To Answer....

"So I know to not be deterred by a Senior Monk indiscriminately linking to "How to post a question effectively"" There's nothing indiscriminate in what I posted. At the top of "How do I post a question effectively?" it clearly says, in large, bold letters: Be precise about the correct behavior / desired output. You failed to do this in your OP. Please make an effort to follow this guideline in future. -- Ken	[reply]
