The wise one, I need to parse many of these: 
("TELNET:OVERFLOW:OPTIONS-REPLY"
        :info (
                :english (
                        :name ("TELNET:OVERFLOW:OPTIONS-REPLY")
                        :long_name ("TELNET Options Overflow (Response
+)")
                        :description ("This signature detects attempts
+ to
exploit a known vulnerability against the BSD-based TELNET daemon. The
option processing function (telrcv) in the daemon produces responses w
+ith
a fixed size buffer, but does not perform bounds checking. Attackers c
+an
send a combination of TELNET protocol options to the daemon to overflo
+w
the buffer and execute arbitrary commands.")
                )
        )
        :color (red)
        :severity (5)
        :category (TELNET)
        :keywords ("telnet dangerous command bin")
)

Regexes will not cut it... Will Parse::RecDescent help? Any other way? Thanks.
