Re: Regular expression match trouble with "+"

Look for perldoc -q regex and perldoc -f quotemeta. I think that it's the proper way to do it. I don't know why converting to lower case via lc() also works.

It's the use of `eq` instead of `m//` that makes it work, not the conversion to lowercase. Converting to lowercase is to string compares what `/i` is to regexps.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
