Re: Regex On Your Tombstone?

s/cavac//g

Edit: Really a shame that the "e" modifier expects an expression, otherwise i could have used s/cavac//gone. Oh well...

perl -e 'use Crypt::Digest::SHA256 qw[sha256_hex]; print substr(sha256_hex("the Answer To Life, The Universe And Everything"), 6, 2), "\n";'

> i could have used `s/cavac//gone` . Oh well... heh! =) I tried RIP but the /r is nondestructive and will keep you alive... ;( `DB<15> $_="cavac" DB<16> s/cavac//rip DB<17> p cavac` [download] update FWIW: I checked for synonyms for "dead", but since "e" is the most common letter in Ænglish ...

Hmm, the alternative would be to make the whole thing Terry Pratchett style and make sure the name is bounced around in the protocol overhead forever. `s/(cavac)/"GNU $1"/` I actually do something like this in my Net-Clacks IPC for a couple of people. `perl -e 'use Crypt::Digest::SHA256 qw[sha256_hex]; print substr(sha256_hex("the Answer To Life, The Universe And Everything"), 6, 2), "\n";'`	[reply] [d/l] [select]

As one author (can't remember who) once said: "Heroes don't die, they just fade away". `perl -e 'use Crypt::Digest::SHA256 qw[sha256_hex]; print substr(sha256_hex("the Answer To Life, The Universe And Everything"), 6, 2), "\n";'`	[reply] [d/l]
