Re^5: Strange regex to test for newlines: /.*\z/

Now I'm confused as well, my mental model doesn't seem to fit (at least not everywhere :-)

Maybe demerphq could tell?

--shmem

_($_=" "x(1<<5)."?\n".q·/)Oo.  G°\        /
                              /\_¯/(q    /
----------------------------  \__(m.====·.(_("always off the crowd"))."·
");sub _{s./.($e="'Itrs `mnsgdq Gdbj O`qkdq")=~y/"-y/#-z/;$e.e && print}

This experience has sure taught me a lot of respect for people that can or must hack one handed... Im finding it extremely frustrating. --- $world=~s/war/peace/g	[reply]
