Re^3: Unpack Many Fields

  $fmt =~ s/(?:#.*)|\n|\s//g;
[download]

Thanks to both of you!
My code is already looking much better.
Cheers!

Not at all. For starters, `s/(?:#.)\|\n\|\s//g` [download] is the same as `s/#.\|\s//g` [download] Secondly, spaces are allowed in the pattern, so your change is unwarranted. Finally, comments are allowed in the pattern, so you don't need the substitution at all.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Spaces AND NEWLINES are accepted in the pattern! Cool. That's why you're the boss! ++ Cheers!	[reply]
