Re: regex regexen

Could it be that the "\]" in

 /.*?[^\]/[$regex_option_list]* #slash delimited regex
[download]

is confusing the parser? You have the meta-delimiters set to escaped square brackets, so that would be the first place I'd look.

Just my $.02.

This was the problem, thank you... I was having trouble thinking through some of the escaping. It does need to be `[^\\]\/` at the end. For the curious: I am implementing and "ed" replacement that will make use of perl6ish regexen and a number of other features. This is a piece from my grammar parser. the real regex part looks like: `m<(?::[$regex_options])?[?/].?[^\\][?/]>` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
