I have been trying to learn perl and was doing ok with 'Roberts Perl Tutorial' (from [url=http://www.netcat.co.uk/rob/perl/win32perltut.html)]http://www.netcat.co.uk/rob/perl/win32perltut.html)[/url] but I got stuck when it came to regex. It just completely went over my head. Is there a good *free* tutorial/guide online that will explain regex syntax and chracters more specifically?

Thanks in advance

Thanks, I didn't realise that there was so much support for Perl. I have heard of people being reffered to the Perl FAQ but no-one ever says where it is...I know now Smiling
