perlrequick - Perl regular expressions quick start¶
- DESCRIPTION
- The Guide
perlretut - Perl regular expressions tutorial¶
- DESCRIPTION
- Part 1: The basics
- Simple word matching
- Using character classes
- Matching this or that
- Grouping things and hierarchical matching
- 0. Start with the first letter in the string 'a',
1. Try the first alternative in the first group
'abd', 2. Match 'a'
followed by 'b'. So far so good, 3.
'd' in the regexp doesn't match
'c' in the string - a dead end. So backtrack two
characters and pick the second alternative in the first group
'abc', 4. Match 'a'
followed by 'b' followed by
'c'. We are on a roll and have satisfied the first
group. Set $1 to 'abc', 5
Move on to the second group and pick the first alternative
'df', 6 Match the 'd', 7.
'f' in the regexp doesn't match
'e' in the string, so a dead end. Backtrack one
character and pick the second alternative in the second group
'd', 8.
'd' matches. The second grouping is satisfied, so set $2 to 'd', 9. We are at the end of the regexp, so we are done! We have matched 'abcd' out of the string "abcde" - Extracting matches
- Backreferences
- Relative backreferences
- Named backreferences
- Alternative capture group numbering
- Position information
- Non-capturing groupings
- Matching repetitions
- 0. Start with the first letter in the string 't', 1. The first quantifier '.*' starts out by matching the whole string ""the cat in the hat"", 2. 'a' in the regexp element 'at' doesn't match the end of the string. Backtrack one character, 3. 'a' in the regexp element 'at' still doesn't match the last letter of the string 't', so backtrack one more character, 4. Now we can match the 'a' and the 't', 5. Move on to the third element '.*'. Since we are at the end of the string and '.*' can match 0 times, assign it the empty string, 6. We are done!

perlunicode - Unicode support in Perl¶
- DESCRIPTION
- Important Caveats
- Safest if you "use feature 'unicode_strings'", Input and Output Layers, You must convert your non-ASCII, non-UTF-8 Perl scripts to be UTF-8, "use utf8" still needed to enable UTF-8 in scripts, UTF-16 scripts autodetected
- Byte and Character Semantics
- ASCII Rules versus Unicode Rules
- When the string has been upgraded to UTF-8, There are additional methods for regular expression patterns
- Extended Grapheme Clusters (Logical characters)
- Unicode Character Properties
- "\p{All}", "\p{Alnum}", "\p{Any}", "\p{ASCII}", "\p{Assigned}", "\p{Blank}", "\p{Decomposition_Type: Non_Canonical}" (Short: "\p{Dt=NonCanon}"), "\p{Graph}", "\p{HorizSpace}", "\p{In=*}", "\p{PerlSpace}", "\p{PerlWord}", "\p{Posix...}", "\p{Present_In: *}" (Short: "\p{In=*}"), "\p{Print}", "\p{SpacePerl}", "\p{Title}" and "\p{Titlecase}", "\p{Unicode}", "\p{VertSpace}", "\p{Word}", "\p{XPosix...}"
- Comparison of "\N{...}" and "\p{name=...}"
- [1], [2], [3], [4], [5]
- Wildcards in Property Values
- User-Defined Character Properties
- User-Defined Case Mappings (for serious hackers only)
- Character Encodings for Input and Output
- Unicode Regular Expression Support Level
- [1] "\N{U+...}" and "\x{...}", [2] "\p{...}" "\P{...}". This requirement is for a minimal list of properties. Perl supports these. See R2.7 for other properties, [3] Perl has "\d" "\D" "\s" "\S" "\w" "\W" "\X" "[:prop:]" "[:^prop:]", plus all the properties specified by <https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr18/#Compatibility_Properties>. These are described above in "Other Properties", [4], Regular expression lookahead, [5] "\b" "\B" meet most, but not all, the details of this requirement, but "\b{wb}" and "\B{wb}" do, as well as the stricter R2.3, [6], [7], [8] UTF-8/UTF-EBDDIC used in Perl allows not only "U+10000" to "U+10FFFF" but also beyond "U+10FFFF", [9] Unicode has rewritten this portion of UTS#18 to say that getting canonical equivalence (see UAX#15 "Unicode Normalization Forms" <https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr15>) is basically to be done at the programmer level. Use NFD to write both your regular expressions and text to match them against (you can use Unicode::Normalize), [10] Perl has "\X" and "\b{gcb}". Unicode has retracted their "Grapheme Cluster Mode", and recently added string properties, which Perl does not yet support, [11] see UAX#29 "Unicode Text Segmentation" <https://www.unicode.org/reports/tr29>,, [12] see "Wildcards in Property Values" above, [13] Perl supports all the properties in the Unicode Character Database (UCD). It does not yet support the listed properties that come from other Unicode sources, [14] The only optional property that Perl supports is Named Sequence. None of these properties are in the UCD

- What character encodings does Perl support?
- Which version of perl should I use?
- What about binary data, like images?
- When should I decode or encode?

- What if I don't encode?
- Is there a way to automatically decode or encode?
- What if I don't know which encoding was used?
- Can I use Unicode in my Perl sources?
- Data::Dumper doesn't restore the UTF8 flag; is it broken?
- Why do regex character classes sometimes match only in the ASCII range?
- Why do some characters not uppercase or lowercase correctly?
- How can I determine if a string is a text string or a binary string?
- How do I convert from encoding FOO to encoding BAR?
- What are "decode_utf8" and "encode_utf8"?
- What is a "wide character"?

ExtUtils::MakeMaker::Config - Wrapper around Config.pm¶
- SYNOPSIS
- DESCRIPTION
ExtUtils::MakeMaker::FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions About MakeMaker¶
- DESCRIPTION
- Module Installation
- How do I install a module into my home directory?, How do I get MakeMaker and Module::Build to install to the same place?, How do I keep from installing man pages?, How do I use a module without installing it?, How can I organize tests into subdirectories and have them run?, PREFIX vs INSTALL_BASE from Module::Build::Cookbook, Generating *.pm files with substitutions eg of $VERSION
- Common errors and problems
- "No rule to make target `/usr/lib/perl5/CORE/config.h', needed by `Makefile'"
- Philosophy and History
- Why not just use <insert other build config tool here>?, What is Module::Build and how does it relate to MakeMaker?, pure perl. no make, no shell commands, easier to customize, cleaner internals, less cruft
- Module Writing
- How do I keep my $VERSION up to date without resetting it manually?, What's this META.yml thing and how did it get in my MANIFEST?!, How do I delete everything not in my MANIFEST?, Which tar should I use on Windows?, Which zip should I use on Windows for '[ndg]make zipdist'?
- XS
- How do I prevent "object version X.XX does not match bootstrap parameter Y.YY" errors?, How do I make two or more XS files coexist in the same directory?, XSMULTI, Separate directories, Bootstrapping

Pod::Perldoc::GetOptsOO - Customized option parser for Pod::Perldoc¶
- SYNOPSIS
- DESCRIPTION
- Call Pod::Perldoc::GetOptsOO::getopts($object, \@ARGV, $truth), Given -n, if there's a opt_n_with, it'll call $object->opt_n_with( ARGUMENT ) (e.g., "-n foo" => $object->opt_n_with('foo'). Ditto "-nfoo"), Otherwise (given -n) if there's an opt_n, we'll call it $object->opt_n($truth) (Truth defaults to 1), Otherwise we try calling $object->handle_unknown_option('n') (and we increment the error count by the return value of it), If there's no handle_unknown_option, then we just warn, and then increment the error counter

The first rule that matches a test will be the one that applies, Any test which does not match a rule will be run in sequence at the end of the run, The existence of a rule does not imply selecting a test. You must still specify the tests to run, Specifying a rule to allow tests to run in parallel does not make the run in parallel. You still need specify the number of parallel "jobs" in your Harness object
