What do things like [string!] and [any-block!] in a function specification block mean?

REBOL Language FAQ
Function arguments followed by one or more datatype identifiers in a block denote a specific constraint on that argument to a function. For instance, the following header: some-func: func [value [money!]] [...] means SOME-FUNC takes one argument assigned to VALUE. The function will return an error if it is supplied an argument other than a money type. Yes. FOREACH, FORALL and FORSKIP use an updated version of the series argument each iteration through.

How do I use $wgSpamRegex to block more than one string?

Manual:FAQ - MediaWiki
wgSpamRegex is a powerful filter for page content. Adding multiple items to the regex, however, can be awkward. Consider this snippet: wgSpamRegexLines[] = 'display\s*:\s*none'; $wgSpamRegexLines[] = 'overflow:\s*\s*auto'; [...] $wgSpamRegex = '/(' . implode( '|', $wgSpamRegexLines ) . ')/i'; This example code allows convenient addition of additional items to the regex without fiddling about each time. It also demonstrates two popular filters, which block some of the most common spam attacks.

How do I expand function calls in a string?

Found in /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.8.8/pod/perlfaq9.pod
This is documented in perlref, and although it's not the easiest thing to read, it does work. In each of these examples, we call the function inside the braces used to dereference a reference. If we have a more than one return value, we can construct and dereference an anonymous array. In this case, we call the function in list context. print "The time values are @{ [localtime] }.\n"; If we want to call the function in scalar context, we have to do a bit more work.

Infrequently Asked Questions in comp.lang.c

However, a community-based 'standard' was developed in June/July 2001 on comp.lang.lisp; known as SPLIT-SEQUENCE (formerly PARTITION), it works as follows in its simplest form: split-sequence #\Space "A stitch in time saves nine.
