in thread extra spaces between the characters in string

Start with perlretut, then perlre, as well as perlop (the section on regexp quote like operators).

But if you have $30 to spend, and a desire to really learn regular expressions, visit the O'Reilly site and order Mastering Regular Expressions (as of this moment, 3rd edition is current). There's no substitute for the best.
