Hello, I'm trying to make a routine to catch some expressions from a file. I'm assuming, wrongly, that can only be one in each line... I'm capturing and appending the expressions like this: 
sub Grab($filename){

open (file1, "<$filename") or goto cont2;

while (<file1>){
my($line) = $_;

my ($exp) = 
        $line =~ m/ 
            kepler_                # Required 
            (.+?)                    # Capture Desired Output  
            (:?\s\(|\(|\s+) # One required - no capture 
        /xi; 

$expr = "kepler_".$1;
if(@Functions =~ /$expr/gi){goto cont1;}
if($1 =~ ""){goto cont1;}
$n += 1;
print $expr."\n";
$value1 = "Exp_".$n;
$key1 = $expr;
$functions{ $key1 } = $value1;      # hash, using variables

cont1:
}
cont2:
close file1;
}
#END GRAB

The problem is that I'm getting duplicated items in the hash. And, that can be more expressions in one line - but probably not... Can anyone help me out here? Kind regards, Kepler
