Sorry about the late notice on this; I had hoped to have somebody
else lined up for this meeting, but that didn't work out, so I'm
pinch-hitting.  -Tim

Tim Maher, who teaches classes on Perl, UNIX, and Linux
topics through his company "Consultix", will discuss some
intermediate-level pattern matching facilities in Perl.  Covered
topics will include Capturing Parentheses, Minimal and Maximal
Matching, the Substitution and split Operators, Fuzzy Matching,
Phonetic Matching, and Damian Conway's Text::Balanced module.

He'll also demonstrate the capabilities of the new "PerlTidy"
beautifier, which successfully uses Perl's pattern matching
facilities to parse Perl source code.  And that ain't easy!
(As Tim knows from grueling personal experience.)
