in thread Regex to get file name from the path with spaces

somehow it is not working for me or am i doing something wrong :( used it like this  .*TEXT:\s+".*?[\/]([\/"]+)" as \\ was not recognized and for my input TEXT: "C:\temp\test äbc.txt" there were no matches found

    You're missing the negation ^ in the character class. Also, you're using forward slashes in the regex, but backslashes in the string. Moreover, I'm not sure the ? is needed.
    #! /usr/bin/perl use strict; use warnings; use utf8; my $input = 'TEXT: "C:\temp\test äbc.txt"'; print $input =~ /.*TEXT:\s+".*[\\]([^\\"]+)"/; # ~ ~ ~ ~
    map{substr$_->[0],$_->[1]||0,1}[\*||{},3],[[]],[ref qr-1,-,-1],[{}],[sub{}^*ARGV,3]
