It still didn't work as needed. That didn't remove the bases after the +N.
I guess you mean the s/// while s/// code in Re^3: Regex fun? Yes, I know it doesn't work, but was just posting it as an example of what would work if Perl changed to fit my whims. :-) I should probably make that clearer.
The actual fixed-but-inelegant code is in Re: Regex fun, in an update at the bottom. I tested it on your input, and it seemed to give the desired output. (It doesn't handle -N escapes, which you seem to want, because I didn't see anything about that in your original specification; but it would be easy enough to adapt it.)
pos($_) -= length($1)+1;
You may want to try pos = $-[0] instead. See pos (for implicit action on $_) and @-.

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).
