Re: [MacPerl] cut

[Keary Suska <aksuska@webflyer.com>]

The way I prefer:

    @items = m/(<.*?>)/g;

In an array context with the /g modifier, m// will return a list of all
matching call backs (patterns in parens). I believe this is faster and more
reliable than split, especially if there is the possibility that random data
will exist between angle-bracketed strings, such as with an email.
