• Crazy Perl Day

  I’m surprised that this is the first time in Perl that I’ve bothered to use the posix character class [:alnum:]. Check this nuttiness out: ($::port_name, $::first_port, $::last_port) = $::port_range =~ /([[:alnum:]]+[^[:alnum:]])(\d+)-[[:alnum:]]+[^[:alnum:]](\d+)/; Yeah…it’s better with coffee.
