I don't know why Perl 1 to Perl 4 had messed up Regular Expression. Perl 5 actually redeemed themselves and returned to the normal good old regular expressions.
> Regexes in Perl are not he same as in Python, Ruby, or PHP, even if some of them call them "Perl 5 compatible Regular Expressions". https://perlmaven.com/introduction-to-regexes-in-perl https://perlmaven.com/introduction-to-regexes-in-perl
I would say the older Perl messed with RegEx and I wish everyone else would get on board. I HATED!!!!! doing my awk regex and then jumping into Perl it wouldn't work.
