If my RE is too long for a single line but rather simple, I just use /x without a comment within the RE (maybe there's one before, e.g
# replace all <a href="link"...>linktext</a>
# with [url="link"]linktext[/url]
$var =~
s~<a \s+ href = "([^"]+)" [^>]* >
(.+?)
</a>
~\[url="$1"\]$2\[/url\]~gsx;
(Well, I know there are better ways to parse html than with REs, but it was the first example that came into my mind)
I only use g, s, m when really needed and not as default options.
Best regards,

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).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
