168 DESCRIPTION
169 Part 1: The basics
170 Simple word matching
171 Using character classes
172 Matching this or that
173 Grouping things and hierarchical matching
174 0. Start with the first letter in the string 'a', 1. Try the
175 first alternative in the first group 'abd', 2. Match 'a'
176 followed by 'b'. So far so good, 3. 'd' in the regexp doesn't
177 match 'c' in the string - a dead end. So backtrack two
178 characters and pick the second alternative in the first group
179 'abc', 4. Match 'a' followed by 'b' followed by 'c'. We are on
180 a roll and have satisfied the first group. Set $1 to 'abc', 5
181 Move on to the second group and pick the first alternative
182 'df', 6 Match the 'd', 7. 'f' in the regexp doesn't match 'e'
183 in the string, so a dead end. Backtrack one character and pick
184 the second alternative in the second group 'd', 8.
185 'd' matches. The second grouping is satisfied, so set $2 to
186 'd', 9. We are at the end of the regexp, so we are done! We
187 have matched 'abcd' out of the string "abcde"
188 Extracting matches
190 Backreferences
191 Relative backreferences
192 Named backreferences
193 Alternative capture group numbering
194 Position information
195 Non-capturing groupings
196 Matching repetitions
197 0. Start with the first letter in the string 't', 1. The
198 first quantifier '.*' starts out by matching the whole string
199 ""the cat in the hat"", 2. 'a' in the regexp element 'at'
200 doesn't match the end of the string. Backtrack one character,
201 3. 'a' in the regexp element 'at' still doesn't match the last
202 letter of the string 't', so backtrack one more character,
203 4. Now we can match the 'a' and the 't', 5. Move on to the
204 third element '.*'. Since we are at the end of the string and
205 '.*' can match 0 times, assign it the empty string, 6. We are
206 done!
207 Possessive quantifiers
209 Building a regexp
210 Using regular expressions in Perl
211 Part 2: Power tools
212 More on characters, strings, and character classes
213 Compiling and saving regular expressions
214 Composing regular expressions at runtime
215 Embedding comments and modifiers in a regular expression

1867 perlunicode - Unicode support in Perl
1869 DESCRIPTION
1870 Important Caveats
1871 Safest if you "use feature 'unicode_strings'", Input and Output
1872 Layers, You must convert your non-ASCII, non-UTF-8 Perl scripts
1873 to be UTF-8, "use utf8" still needed to enable UTF-8 in
1874 scripts, UTF-16 scripts autodetected
1875 Byte and Character Semantics
1877 ASCII Rules versus Unicode Rules
1878 When the string has been upgraded to UTF-8, There are
1879 additional methods for regular expression patterns
1880 Extended Grapheme Clusters (Logical characters)
1882 Unicode Character Properties
1883 "\p{All}", "\p{Alnum}", "\p{Any}", "\p{ASCII}", "\p{Assigned}",
1884 "\p{Blank}", "\p{Decomposition_Type: Non_Canonical}" (Short:
1885 "\p{Dt=NonCanon}"), "\p{Graph}", "\p{HorizSpace}", "\p{In=*}",
1886 "\p{PerlSpace}", "\p{PerlWord}", "\p{Posix...}",
1887 "\p{Present_In: *}" (Short: "\p{In=*}"), "\p{Print}",
1888 "\p{SpacePerl}", "\p{Title}" and "\p{Titlecase}",
1889 "\p{Unicode}", "\p{VertSpace}", "\p{Word}", "\p{XPosix...}"
1890 Wildcards in Property Values
1892 User-Defined Character Properties
1893 User-Defined Case Mappings (for serious hackers only)
1894 Character Encodings for Input and Output
1895 Unicode Regular Expression Support Level
1896 [1] "\N{U+...}" and "\x{...}", [2] "\p{...}" "\P{...}". This
1897 requirement is for a minimal list of properties. Perl supports
1898 these and all other Unicode character properties, as R2.7 asks
1899 (see "Unicode Character Properties" above), [3] Perl has "\d"
1900 "\D" "\s" "\S" "\w" "\W" "\X" "[:prop:]" "[:^prop:]", plus all
1901 the properties specified by
1902 <http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr18/#Compatibility_Properties>.
1903 These are described above in "Other Properties", [4], Regular
1904 expression lookahead, [5] "\b" "\B" meet most, but not all, the
1905 details of this requirement, but "\b{wb}" and "\B{wb}" do, as
1906 well as the stricter R2.3, [6], [7], [8] UTF-8/UTF-EBDDIC used
1907 in Perl allows not only "U+10000" to "U+10FFFF" but also beyond
1908 "U+10FFFF", [9] Unicode has rewritten this portion of UTS#18 to
1909 say that getting canonical equivalence (see UAX#15 "Unicode
1910 Normalization Forms" <http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr15>) is
1911 basically to be done at the programmer level. Use NFD to write
1912 both your regular expressions and text to match them against
1913 (you can use Unicode::Normalize), [10] Perl has "\X" and
1914 "\b{gcb}" but we don't have a "Grapheme Cluster Mode", [11] see
1915 UAX#29 "Unicode Text Segmentation"
1916 <http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr29>,, [12] see "Wildcards in
1917 Property Values" above, [13] Perl has Unicode::Collate, but it
1918 isn't integrated with regular expressions. See UTS#10 "Unicode
1919 Collation Algorithms" <http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr10>,
1920 [14] Perl has "(?<=x)" and "(?=x)", but this requirement says
1921 that it should be possible to specify that matches may occur
1922 only in a substring with the lookaheads and lookbehinds able to
1923 see beyond that matchable portion, [15] Perl has user-defined
1924 properties ("User-Defined Character Properties") to look at
1925 single code points in ways beyond Unicode, and it might be
1926 possible, though probably not very clean, to use code blocks
1927 and things like "(?(DEFINE)...)" (see perlre) to do more
1928 specialized matching

11716 SYNOPSIS
11717 DESCRIPTION
11718 ExtUtils::MakeMaker::FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions About MakeMaker
11720 DESCRIPTION
11721 Module Installation
11722 How do I install a module into my home directory?, How do I get
11723 MakeMaker and Module::Build to install to the same place?, How
11724 do I keep from installing man pages?, How do I use a module
11725 without installing it?, How can I organize tests into
11726 subdirectories and have them run?, PREFIX vs INSTALL_BASE from
11727 Module::Build::Cookbook, Generating *.pm files with
11728 substitutions eg of $VERSION
11729 Common errors and problems
11731 "No rule to make target `/usr/lib/perl5/CORE/config.h', needed
11732 by `Makefile'"
11733 Philosophy and History
11735 Why not just use <insert other build config tool here>?, What
11736 is Module::Build and how does it relate to MakeMaker?, pure
11737 perl. no make, no shell commands, easier to customize,
11738 cleaner internals, less cruft
11739 Module Writing
11741 How do I keep my $VERSION up to date without resetting it
11742 manually?, What's this META.yml thing and how did it get in my
11743 MANIFEST?!, How do I delete everything not in my MANIFEST?,
11744 Which tar should I use on Windows?, Which zip should I use on
11745 Windows for '[ndg]make zipdist'?
11746 XS How do I prevent "object version X.XX does not match bootstrap
11748 parameter Y.YY" errors?, How do I make two or more XS files
11749 coexist in the same directory?, XSMULTI, Separate directories,
11750 Bootstrapping

15625 Call Pod::Perldoc::GetOptsOO::getopts($object, \@ARGV, $truth),
15626 Given -n, if there's a opt_n_with, it'll call $object->opt_n_with(
15627 ARGUMENT ) (e.g., "-n foo" => $object->opt_n_with('foo'). Ditto
15628 "-nfoo"), Otherwise (given -n) if there's an opt_n, we'll call it
15629 $object->opt_n($truth) (Truth defaults to 1), Otherwise we try
15630 calling $object->handle_unknown_option('n') (and we increment
15631 the error count by the return value of it), If there's no
15632 handle_unknown_option, then we just warn, and then increment the
15633 error counter

16883 Rules data structure
16884 By default, all tests are eligible to be run in parallel.
16885 Specifying any of your own rules removes this one, "First match
16886 wins". The first rule that matches a test will be the one that
16887 applies, Any test which does not match a rule will be run in
16888 sequence at the end of the run, The existence of a rule does
16889 not imply selecting a test. You must still specify the tests to
16890 run, Specifying a rule to allow tests to run in parallel does
16891 not make the run in parallel. You still need specify the number
16892 of parallel "jobs" in your Harness object

17108 Test2 - Framework for writing test tools that all work together.
17110 DESCRIPTION
17111 WHAT IS NEW?
17112 Easier to test new testing tools, Better diagnostics
17113 capabilities, Event driven, More complete API, Support for
17114 output other than TAP, Subtest implementation is more sane,
17115 Support for threading/forking
17116 GETTING STARTED
17118 Test2, This describes the namespace layout for the Test2 ecosystem. Not all
17120 the namespaces listed here are part of the Test2 distribution, some are
17121 implemented in Test2::Suite.
