Re: Re: Interesting Regex Question

Lots of good info, but I think you may have confused the original node's example bibtex source as perl code. The piece:

@article{ 
   author = {Author, J.P } ,
   title  = "A paper about things" ,
   etc..
}
[download]

is bibtex source, and not an attempt by the node creator to make a perl array....

Thanks for the heads up. As you correctly assume, I've got no idea what bibtex is - strange source though. I've modifie the posted code (second bit that does the string) to handle this assuming you get this entire entity as a single string. Hope that's correct tachyon s&&rsenoyhcatreve&&&s&n\w+t&"$'$`$\"$\&"&ee&&y&srve&&d&&print	[reply]

For bibtex/latex info, just look here and here. Basically, latex is a markup language, a grandchild of SGML so you will and a cousin of HTML. Bibtex is used to describe bibliographic references in separate files, to be included in latex sources. Cheers, Jeroen "We are not alone"(FZ)	[reply]
