No my? No $txt =~ s/f(ast)/r$1/; or something more interesting?
Perl related.
How is this Perl related?
Extensive experience,

Or do you think only Perl
has regular expressions and only Perl does parsing? What qualifies
you as an expert?
I am the most creative regular expression artist you will have the
privelage to ever see. It comes from 25 years of parsing text,
starting in assembly.
Where is that job description? I'm rolling on the floor laughing !!

I wouldn't say reading your rude arguments on a newsgroup about how
smart you think you are is somehow a good basis to say it's a
"privilege" to read any of your (what you call) "art".
Honestly, I'm not trying to be mean, but I'm pretty good with regular
expressions and I can't say your contributions have given me an
impression of you being anymore than a beginner.
Your attitude sucks, and it's because you think you're a lot smarter
than you actually are. It would be somewhat bearable if you were
actually pretty skilled in the areas you think you are, but you're
not... so it's just sad.
Again, I'm not trying to be mean, but if you weren't so rude and
vulgar and combative with everyone on this group and stopped trying to
push your old, broken ass regex engine on people, especially when it's
not
even relevant to the original topic, it might win you more respect. I
just can't accept that you're some "regex guru" when you don't even
know when to use the /x modifier.
Calm down, be respectful and friendly and even when you're wrong,
you'll find there's no need to argue with people and people will show
respect
in response. Just thinking you're the smartest person in the group,
especially without merit, is not a replacement for actually having
skills in the areas you like to claim.
Please understand, I'm not calling you out or trying to embarrass you,
I'm simply making a point. You've made up your mind that you'll
continue to post in this group regardless of being right or wrong, so
whatever motivating reason drives you to post here, if you just show
some respect and humility, instead of arguing and insisting about
things you clearly lack skills in, it would go a long way. Not that I
think you'll care, but there it is.
