I took several minutes to install Tk.pm so that I could run this. I was really curious what it actually accomplished in just 2.6 seconds--or if, perhaps, it would be much different on my computer. Alas, I have perl 5.12, which is not compatible with the s///r pragma. I tried a couple of things to work around that, but feel like I'm working in the dark here, never having entirely grasped map or what it does. ...at the risk of appearing foolish, here's what I tried for that line that didn't work.

  $ro->insert(end => join "", map { do { (my $s = $_ ) =~ s/^(\d\d)\d*
+/$1%/ . "\n"; $s },
    @matches[0 .. $bestcount - 1] });

#RESULT:
#Useless use of concatenation (.) or string in void context at KJV_Ver
+seMatcher_PM_Script.pl line 88.
#syntax error at KJV_VerseMatcher_PM_Script.pl line 89, near "})"

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
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).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
