Re: Parsing spaces and curly braces

If you don't have to worry about nesting braces, you can extract the strings like so:

@matches = /(\{[^}]+\}|\S+)/g;

Cases not specified by the OP behave as follows: "`xxx{yyy zzz}`" is split into "`xxx{yyy`" and "`zzz}`". "`{xxx yyy}zzz`" is split into "`{xxx yyy}`" and "`zzz`". `@matches = /({[^}]+}\|[^{\s]+)/g;` might work better: "`xxx{yyy zzz}`" is split into "`xxx`" and "`{yyy zzz}`". "`{xxx yyy}zzz`" is split into "`{xxx yyy}`" and "`zzz`".	[reply] [d/l] [select]
