Escaping characters / emacs font-lock-mode

[Tor Houghton]

Am I right in that the following two are identical to the Perl interpreter?

$fsp=~s/([&; \'\"!|])/\\$1/g;

and

$fsp=~s/([&; '"!|])/\\$1/g;

?

(They are not identical for the Emacs "font-lock-mode"

Perhaps you need a better perl mode for your emacs installation. Cperl-
mode handles both cases equally well.

Yes, you are right.

That's not surprising. It's *only* Emacs, after all. ;-)

Thanks!
