| 6 | NAME |
| 7 | |
| 8 | Text::Balanced - Extract delimited text sequences from strings. |
| 9 | |
| 10 | |
| 11 | SUMMARY (see Balanced.pod for full details) |
| 12 | |
| 13 | Text::Balanced::extract_delimited |
| 14 | |
| 15 | `extract_delimited' extracts the initial substring of a string |
| 16 | which is delimited by a user-specified set of single-character |
| 17 | delimiters, whilst ignoring any backslash-escaped delimiter |
| 18 | characters. |
| 19 | |
| 20 | Text::Balanced::extract_bracketed |
| 21 | |
| 22 | `extract_bracketed' extracts a balanced-bracket-delimited substring |
| 23 | (using any one (or more) of the user-specified delimiter brackets: |
| 24 | '(..)', '{..}', '[..]', or '<..>'). |
| 25 | |
| 26 | Text::Balanced::extract_quotelike |
| 27 | |
| 28 | `extract_quotelike' attempts to recognize and extract any one of the |
| 29 | various Perl quote and quotelike operators (see "perlop(3)"). Embedded |
| 30 | backslashed delimiters, nested bracket delimiters (for the |
| 31 | quotelike operators), and trailing modifiers are all correctly handled. |
| 32 | |
| 33 | Text::Balanced::extract_codeblock |
| 34 | |
| 35 | `extract_codeblock' attempts to recognize and extract a |
| 36 | balanced bracket-delimited substring which may also contain |
| 37 | unbalanced brackets inside Perl quotes or quotelike |
| 38 | operations. That is, `extract_codeblock' is like a combination |
| 39 | of `extract_bracketed' and `extract_quotelike'. |
| 40 | |
| 41 | Text::Balanced::extract_tagged |
| 42 | |
| 43 | `extract_tagged' attempts to recognize and extract a |
| 44 | substring between two arbitrary "tag" patterns (a start tag |
| 45 | and an end tag). |
| 46 | |
| 47 | |
| 48 | INSTALLATION |
| 49 | |
| 50 | It's all pure Perl, so just put the .pm file in its appropriate |
| 51 | local Perl subdirectory. |
