True? Trying to be sure we don't confuse spaces and tabs, both being white space chars and all. My knowledge of regular expressions needs polishing, to my shame, but is the expression truly bulletproof about matching the end of ppop's opening response? Could the extra 'a2' be saving the day, which the release version lacks? Be assured, there IS a problem here. The 'die' statement is ALWAYS executed for 1.51 on my system. I can only see the extra end chars and the space/tab thing as possible answers. This should be simple. Well, as simple as regular expressions ever are!
