I have no idea what the 'standard' is, but the modifier is not '/c' (I dont recall if I refered to it that way in my first message, but I was being coloquial if so), insofar as the '/' is part of another syntactic structure which does not even require it to be a '/'.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The perlre man page talks about "quoting" metacharacters. This may not be the easiest terminology for novice perl programmers to understand. Also this man page seems to downplay the utility of the quotemeta() function and \Q escape sequence compared to the older idiom of s/(\W)/\\$1/g Maybe text similar to the changes below would be clearer. p5p-msgid: 199708101946.AA06339@world.std.com
