Quite right, since "Ima" means "Mother" in Hebrew (well, okay, Aramaic, but let's not get carried away), and I don't think it's supposed to be the mother of all DBI modules... -- edan	[reply]

That'll work great until you use some syntax-highlighting editor that mistakes it for a quoted string :) You++ anyway, for finding an almost-good use of the single-quote package seperator. ---- send money to your kernel via the boot loader..

Don't forget about another great use of the apostrophe namespace separator. `------------ :Wq Not an editor command: Wq` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

This already happens whenever I use `, #, ", and ' in regexps. What editor are you using that it correctly parses perl? Both the cperl-perl and perl-perl major modes of emacs get this sort of stuff wrong all the time.	[reply]

Oh, mine messes it up, too (that being vim 6.3). Quotes and comments in regexen are usually OK, but the quote-like package seperator horribly confuses it. Which is fine, since I don't use it anyway. ---- send money to your kernel via the boot loader.. This and more wisdom available from Markov Hardburn.	[reply]

SciTE (a Scintilla editor) handles quote chars inside regexes (and complexities like qw//, qq// and q// highlighting for many different values of '/'). I enjoy it immensely. radiantmatrix `require General::Disclaimer; s//2fde04abe76c036c9074586c1/; while(m/(.)/g){print substr(' ,JPacehklnorstu',hex($1),1)}`	[reply]
