regexp question :

zcabeli

Hi,

i'd like to know how to make a regexp that catches the following patterns
ABC[A-Z][A-Z][A-Z] but not ABCDEF and ABCDEE

i've tried somthing like, but the interpreter regards the characters inside the brakets as seperately and not as a combination:

/ABC[^DEF|DEE]/

thanks,

KevinADC

 $str = 'ABCDEE';

if ($str =~ /^ABC(?!DEF|DEE)[A-Z][A-Z][A-Z]$/) {

    print "match";

}

thanks alot, that was really helpful. i've managed to get the concept and used it in different patterns.

originally i wanted to use regexp in unix (c-shell), so i want to know whether there a short way to activate instant perl code lines to parse files.

for example, catch all line that contains certain regexp in a file.

thanks again,
