First, as you see, from my example, capturing parenthesis do not work, i.e., the string is not splitted according to what I intended to be a separator: 'abc'.
Um, no
#!/usr/bin/perl --
use strict; use warnings;
use Data::Dumper;
my @a1 = split /abc/, "uno abc dos";
my @a2 = split /(abc)/, "uno abc dos";
my @a3 = split /(?:abc)/, "uno abc dos";
print "a1 @a1\n", Dumper( \@a1 ), "\n";
print "a2 @a2\n", Dumper( \@a2 ), "\n";
print "a3 @a3\n", Dumper( \@a3 ), "\n";
__END__
a1 uno dos
$VAR1 = [
'uno ',
' dos'
];
a2 uno abc dos
$VAR1 = [
'uno ',
'abc',
' dos'
];
a3 uno dos
$VAR1 = [
'uno ',
' dos'
];

By the way, I'm new here, and I understood this is the site to ask for some help, if it isn't, please tell me where to go with my silly questions.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
