Re^2: checking interpreted string for escapes versus literal backslashes?

in thread checking interpreted string for escapes versus literal backslashes?

that's a good point, i think i'll borrow your \B idea and use it instead! perl should really include something along that line, because i cant remmber how many times i have to deal with "\\\\\$test" or a similar situation...

Don't actually use `\B` though, as it's already a regexp meta-character. Better use some unused letter (though it's hard to find any).	[reply] [d/l]
