I want to match all strings ending in 'or' and that have more than four
letters...
It should replace 'or' with 'our'
eg flavor -> flavour
but 'or' -> 'or'
the problem is how do I achieve this without changing for example 'flavor'
to 'our'.

Read perlre as many times as needed until you understand the regex
below.
#!/usr/local/bin/perl -w
use strict;
$_ = "For more flavor, add more humor, or poor liquor!\n";
s/\b([a-z]+[b-df-hj-np-tv-z])or\b/$1our/gi;
print;
__END__
For more flavour, add more humour, or poor liquor!
I'm not sure about the British spelling -- liquour? Then allow 'u' in
the regex. Nothing will be perfect, of course, except using a hash
lookup for 'all' words that need to be changed.

Your problem is much worse than that:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
while(<DATA>){
s/\b(\w{2,})(?<!o)or(?=\b|s\b|ed\b|ing\b)/$1our/g;
print;
}
__DATA__
There's flavors and behaviors
And endings after 'or'
Exceptions are the rule you know
There's one at every door.
---
The endings could be handled
Just look ahead and see,
Match your stuff (that's not enough)
Then this or that slash b.

Even this won't do the trick
Checking language ain't so quick.
Inventor, co-processor,
And hold the elevator.
Each of these and many more

Charles,
I put the news: part at the start of the URL just to make it "hot" so I
could see if I could click on it to get to that newsgroup, but it didn't
work. It just isn't available on Newsguy nor my regular news server
news.inc.net. Here are the only newsgoups I get that begin with
comp.infosystems: http://extra.newsguy.com/~detect/newsgrp1.jpg
I'll carbon copy my news server on this to see what they have to say.

Charles & Rich,
It turns out that Communicator 4.06 comes with some kind of default listing for
newsgroups. (I've only been using it for a couple weeks.) When I changed
things to download the newsgroup index from Newsguy, I found that their index
has a lot more newsgroups: http://extra.newsguy.com/~detect/newsgrp2.jpg and
includes comp.infosystems.www.authoring.cgi among thousands of others.
Sorry for any confusion.
Thanks for your help.

I sense some FUD at play here. There seems to be some implication that
using Perl opens up some yawning security hole - which of course is not
the case or rather no more than carrying out the same operations with
any other language.
It mighty be more helpful if you made some suggestion as to what you
precisely you were trying to do and why you thought this might be a
security risk.
Of course a lot of the possible things are nothing to do with Perl and
would be better taken to another group - such as Authentication and so
forth.
You might also be better off looking at one of the Win32 Perl specific
mailing-lists that can be found at <http://www.activestate.com> as there
will be a better ratio of people who are interested in NT issues there.

Subject: Socket.pm - How to change the timeout?
Message-Id: <7h42ep$li3$1@news1.Radix.Net>
Keywords: Hexapodia as the key insight
I use Socket.pm to resolve IP addresses into hostnames in my web hit
report software.
Every now and then, I get a number that takes an *extremely* long time to
resolve. In fact, in these instances, it does not resolve at all, but
returns undef. Which is normal for Socket.pm, and acceptable for my
report.
The problem is, I want the call:
gethostbyaddr( inet_aton ( $ip ), AF_INET )
to timeout after (say) 10 seconds, instead of the several minutes it now
takes.
Would someone please direct me to to the exceedingly obvious documentation
that explains how to change the default timeout of this call?

Subject: sort gives out of memory
Message-Id: <37359f60.568595036@news.gulftel.com>
Hi,
I have a multiple sort like
$h{$a}->{'brand'} cmp $h{$b}->{'brand'} ||
$h{$a}->{'product'} cmp $h{$b}->{'product'} ||
$h{$b}->{'date'} cmp $h{$a}->{'date'};
where the hash is tied as
tie %h, 'MLDBM', $dbfile ...
It's works fine until the hash grows big. Then I get out of memory. Is
there a nifty way to partially sort in chunks or something so I can
circumvent the memory limit?
Many thanks in advance,
Boson

Actually, I checked the results this time, and both 'Larry1' and 'Larry2'
didn't return anything useful with my antique Perl version 5.003_07
(Perl for Win32 Build 315 - Built 09:33:08 Dec 31 1997) :-(
I found out that if I moved the my() out of the inner loop, it does work.
I guess that's a known bug ?
Anyway, now both 'Larry' versions take 3 seconds (and give the right
results) too. Bart's solution still beats it (but it doubles the memory
requirements).
Well, I'll do some real benchmarks when I get back to a decent
computer (and I'm upgrading this one now).

Not so much a bug in 5.003 as a feature added in 5.004. I took it for
granted in writing the function.

I'm pleased by that. I was troubled by the speed discrepancy, but
fairly confident about the correctness of the code.
Bart's solution relies on the peculiar properties of your data (many
keys, few values). Your approach is independent of the nature of the
data.

Good. So far, no one has pointed to an existing solution for
extremes(). But it's Sunday (and Mother's Day here, at that). So who
knows what next week will turn up?

It needs to be a little more general than that. A proper bitbucket also
supplies end-of-file when opened for input and read from. Perhaps '+>'
on the open() will do it.
How do I avoid being taken *too* seriously, without putting a smiley on

Hi people,
I have something like the following file (/test):
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdio.h>
printf ("test");
for ($i=0; $i<=100; $i++)
{
printf ("test");
}
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdio.h>

#include <stdio.h>
and I want to replace all #include's bij '//' in PERL.
I do something like:
#!/usr/bin/perl
$input_file="/test";
open (input_file);
$array=<input_file>;
close (input_file);
foreach ($array_
{
$currentline=$array[$counter];
if ($currentline == "#include")
{
print "//"
}
else
{
print $currentline;
{

The weird thing for me is that all $currentline's are printed, they
just never seem to be =="#include", even if they're printed like that.
What am I missing here??

Firstly: questions of this sort should invariably asked in another group
comp.infosystems.www.servers.ms-windows in this case. Your question is
'How do I make NT do this' which could equally apply to any interpreted
language : Python, tcl, REXX ...

Oh deary me - If you are using the Perl that comes with the Resource Kit
then you really should upgrade - it is based on 5.001 I believe. Go to
<http://www.activestate.com/ActivePerl/> and grab the most recent binary
of the Win32 port. It installs easy and may infact sort some of your
problems out. Also the documentation that comes with the ActiveState
Perl has a good section on how to set up various HTTP servers to run
Perl programs as CGI. Get it - read the docs.

If you are scared about using regedit then you should maybe look for
another job ;-} You will almost certainly need to do this - I have
got a copy of the relevant part of the IIS manual at :
<http://www.btinternet.com/~gellyfish/docs/map.html>
What you are looking for here is 'Script Map'.

No the association as you would do with ASSOC and FTYPE only affects
programs that are run at the command prompt - you need to be able to tell
IIS what interpreter to use for scripts. Which is done throught the
'Script Map' which has to be altered by regedit.

Thanks for the help.. The key is the Registry. Just like any map you
got to know what you are looking for.
BTW This is the first time posting to this group.

Well, after 6 months, here's the answer to the quiz: what do we do about
comp.lang.perl.moderated. Answer: nothing.
]From: Russ Allbery <rra@stanford.edu>
]Date: 21 Sep 1998 19:53:43 -0700
]Subject: comp.lang.perl.moderated available via e-mail
]
]It is possible to subscribe to comp.lang.perl.moderated as a mailing list.
]To do so, send mail to majordomo@eyrie.org with "subscribe clpm" in the
]body. Majordomo will then send you instructions on how to confirm your
]subscription. This is provided as a general service for those people who
]cannot receive the newsgroup for whatever reason or who just prefer to
]receive messages via e-mail.
The Perl-Users Digest is a retransmission of the USENET newsgroup
comp.lang.perl.misc. For subscription or unsubscription requests, send
the single line:
subscribe perl-users
or:
unsubscribe perl-users
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu.
To submit articles to comp.lang.perl.misc (and this Digest), send your
article to perl-users@ruby.oce.orst.edu.
To submit articles to comp.lang.perl.announce, send your article to
clpa@perl.com.
To request back copies (available for a week or so), send your request
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu with the command "send perl-users x.y",
where x is the volume number and y is the issue number.
The Meta-FAQ, an article containing information about the FAQ, is
available by requesting "send perl-users meta-faq". The real FAQ, as it
appeared last in the newsgroup, can be retrieved with the request "send
perl-users FAQ". Due to their sizes, neither the Meta-FAQ nor the FAQ
are included in the digest.
The "mini-FAQ", which is an updated version of the Meta-FAQ, is
available by requesting "send perl-users mini-faq". It appears twice
weekly in the group, but is not distributed in the digest.
For other requests pertaining to the digest, send mail to
perl-users-request@ruby.oce.orst.edu. Do not waste your time or mine
sending perl questions to the -request address, I don't have time to
answer them even if I did know the answer.
