Perl is a context-sensitive language which defies any attempt to write a simple parser. You'll either have to settle for something simple that doesn't handle edge cases or something complex that does. <p> As an aside, you might be intersted in this take on "only perl can parse Perl": [id://289111] <p> -sam 393419 393419
