Good, point... the entire sort is unnecessary. The length is taken care of by the regex engine, and its not possible to have two matches of the same length, so no sorting all all is needed. Therefore, I submit that:
my $pattern = join('|',(keys %sufdata));
if ($name =~ s/($pattern)$/$sufdata{$1}/o) {
print "Suffix $1 -> $name\n";
return;
}
print " no rule apply -> $name\n";
Would work the same as my code above.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
