As for how I got around Perl's unhappiness here, I rolled my
own solution:
m{
A
(?:
(?>[^AB]*) # match non-A's and non-B's WITHOUT BACKTRACKING
(?:
[AB] # match A or B next...
| # ...or...
(?<=.) # ...if there was a character before
)
B # match B
)* # 0 or more times
[^AB]* # you know the rest
A
}x
Ick. Why should I have to do that work?
$_="goto+F.print+chop;\n=yhpaj";F1:eval

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
