C:\>perl -MYAPE::Regex::Explain -le"print YAPE::Regex::Explain->new(qr

matches as follows:

NODE                     EXPLANATION
----------------------------------------------------------------------
(?-imsx:                 group, but do not capture (case-sensitive)
                         (with ^ and $ matching normally) (with . not
                         matching \n) (matching whitespace and #
                         normally):
----------------------------------------------------------------------
  [^[:print:]]             any character except: alphanumeric,
                           punctuation, and whitespace characters
