NAME

6       Regexp::Common::lingua -- provide regexes for language related stuff.
7

SYNOPSIS

9           use Regexp::Common qw /lingua/;
10
11           while (<>) {
12               /^$RE{lingua}{palindrome}$/    and  print "is a palindrome\n";
13           }
14

DESCRIPTION

16       Please consult the manual of Regexp::Common for a general description
17       of the works of this interface.
18
19       Do not use this module directly, but load it via Regexp::Common.
20
21       $RE{lingua}{palindrome}
22
23       Returns a pattern that recognizes a palindrome, a string that is the
24       same if you reverse it. By default, it only matches strings consisting
25       of letters, but this can be changed using the "{-chars}" option.  This
26       option takes a character class (default is "[A-Za-z]") as argument.
27
28       If "{-keep}" is used, only $1 will be set, and set to the entire match.
29
30       This pattern requires at least perl 5.6.0.

50        The whole world understands RCS/CVS version numbers, that 1.9 is an
51        older version than 1.10. Except CPAN. Curse the idiot(s) who think
52        that version numbers are floats (in which universe do floats have
53        more than one decimal dot?).
54        Everything is bumped to version 2.100 because CPAN couldn't deal
55        with the fact one file had version 1.10.
