Re^3: A small queestion to match processes

It would have been useful if you specified which syntax you didn't know about. Here's a couple of guesses:

$-[0] is the first element in the array @- which is described in perlvar.
?STAT? is described in perlop - Regexp Quote-Like Operators under ?PATTERN?. Regular expressions are described in perlre.

Also, take a look at perl - perldoc.perl.org. Here you'll find links to all the Perl manual pages. I wouldn't suggest attempting to learn everything in all that documentation; rather, just get a feel for where that information can be found. Once you are familiar with what's available, looking up specifics is usually a fairly easy task.

Thank you, I`ll look into these. I was just in a hurry before the idea blows off my head ( as usually happens ), so when I get better, I`ll rewrite it the lazy way :)	[reply]
