diffing special chars

[sinck@ugive.com]

\_ Trust me, anyone that has done RegExp scripting knows what I mean
\_ when I say a regexp takes one week to being incomprehensible.
Bah.  You just need to document it.  :-)  Or build it in manageable
pieces. 

\_ Get [Mastering Regular Expressions by ORA] and give it a shot. It should
\_ be worth it.

I've read the MRE cover to cover, and if you're coding more than one
20 char regexp a day, you prolly ought to take a look.  It's steep,
but, it's got the juice you need.
