Re^2: Is there any way to put regex modifiers into a variable?

Yes! Thank you! That is the slap upside the head that I needed.

With regards to the /o modifier, see the Perlop man page, Regexp Quote-Like Operators.

the `/o` modifier Although I'm having trouble finding it at the moment, I think there was some recent discussion that `/o` is often not what you want. All I found so far is /o is dead, long live qr//!, although that's not recent. There's the FAQ What is /o really for?. You could perhaps look into `qr//`.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
