You should see if there is a way you can get these functions into Perl 6. I'm sure that there is space for interesting (and useful) regexes like these that don't require you having to type in something as confusing as /^\W*(?:((.)\W*(?1)\W*\2|)|((.)\W*(?3)\W*\4|\W*.\W*))\W*$/i

Try emailing someone who is working on Perl 6 with your functions. Maybe you could write a module that includes all of these as subfunctions.

Well, good luck with your work. I certainly enjoyed looking it over.

Peace, BlackFlag.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post, it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":


  • Posts are HTML formatted. Put <p> </p> tags around your paragraphs. Put <code> </code> tags around your code and data!
  • Titles consisting of a single word are discouraged, and in most cases are disallowed outright.
  • Read Where should I post X? if you're not absolutely sure you're posting in the right place.
  • Please read these before you post! —
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags:
    a, abbr, b, big, blockquote, br, caption, center, col, colgroup, dd, del, details, div, dl, dt, em, font, h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6, hr, i, ins, li, ol, p, pre, readmore, small, span, spoiler, strike, strong, sub, summary, sup, table, tbody, td, tfoot, th, thead, tr, tt, u, ul, wbr
