NAME

6       Regexp::Common::whitespace -- provides a regex for leading or trailing
7       whitescape
8

SYNOPSIS

10           use Regexp::Common qw /whitespace/;
11
12           while (<>) {
13               s/$RE{ws}{crop}//g;           # Delete surrounding whitespace
14           }
15

DESCRIPTION

17       Please consult the manual of Regexp::Common for a general description
18       of the works of this interface.
19
20       Do not use this module directly, but load it via Regexp::Common.
21
22   $RE{ws}{crop}
23       Returns a pattern that identifies leading or trailing whitespace.
24
25       For example:
26
27               $str =~ s/$RE{ws}{crop}//g;     # Delete surrounding whitespace
28
29       The call:
30
31               $RE{ws}{crop}->subs($str);
32
33       is optimized (but probably still slower than doing the s///g
34       explicitly).
35
36       This pattern does not capture under "-keep".
