Re^2: What does belg4mit's signature do?

Weird...

$ perl -MO=Deparse -wpe "s/\b;([mnst])/'$1/g"
BEGIN { $^W = 1; }
LINE: while (defined($_ = <ARGV>)) {
    s/\b;([mnst])/'/g;
}
continue {
    print $_;
}
-e syntax OK

Where did my $1 went to? :-|

This should be something trivial, but... my $1 is disappearing... :-| I'm going from "don;t" to "don'" :-|

Wasn't ' the same thing as ::?

Your shell has interpolated `$1` before it came to perl You may try `perl -MO=Deparse -wpe 's/\b;([nmst])/\'$1/g'`	[reply] [d/l] [select]
