Thanks for the link -- I searched PerlMonks, but couldn't find this entry.
:(  For my limited needs, this appears to work:

# df -k | perl -pe 's/(?<=\d)(?=(?:\d\d\d)+\b)/,/g'
Filesystem            kbytes    used   avail capacity  Mounted on
/dev/dsk/c1t0d0s0    28,299,128 9,852,819 18,163,318    36%    /

And you're right -- the output is uglier now that the columns have no
chance to line up.  I might have to play with the "(?{ code })" you
mentioned to see if I can get it to work.

Thanks!

Dan
