Use perl to repair a mis-formatted text file
Authored by: unforeseen:X11 on Jan 25, '07 09:07:27AM

Perl is designed to easily work with textfiles, so yes, you can do that with Perl. You can also do the same with grep or SubEthaEdit's find & replace, checking the box labelled "RegExp".

This is actually a hint about using regular expressions, not Perl. And yes, there must be a Backslash before every "w" in the code. (Most probably a SQL/PHP problem of macosxhints ;D ).

this is not the sig you`re looking for.
