Re^2: [RE] match positions of named captures?

> How do you expect to get a position for that named group?

by associating a named capture to an capture index. The word tie implies that this is done somewhere.

 
$VAR1 = {
          'foo' => [
                     'b',   # $1
                     'd'    # $3
                   ],
          'bar' => [
                     'c',   # $2
                     'ef'   # $4
                   ]
        };
