/g means "global". See perlop as already hinted. The /g modifier specifies global pattern matching—that is, matching as many times as possible within the string. How it behaves depends on the context. In list context, it returns a list of the substrings matched by any capturing parentheses in the regular expression. If there are no parentheses, it returns a list of all the matched strings, as if there were parentheses around the whole pattern. `(...)[0]` returns the first (zeroth) element of the list. Therefore, the construct enforces list context on the contents of the parentheses. لսႽ† ᥲᥒ⚪⟊Ⴙᘓᖇ Ꮅᘓᖇ⎱ Ⴙᥲ𝇋ƙᘓᖇ	[reply] [d/l]

What does the /g modifier mean? Global matching what does the [0] mean? Subscripts	[reply]
