=head1 NAME

Regexp::Common::list -- provide regexes for lists

=head1 SYNOPSIS

    use Regexp::Common qw /list/;

    while (<>) {
        /$RE{list}{-pat => '\w+'}/          and print "List of words";
        /$RE{list}{-pat => $RE{num}{real}}/ and print "List of numbers";
    }


=head1 DESCRIPTION

Please consult the manual of L<Regexp::Common> for a general description
of the works of this interface.

Do not use this module directly, but load it via I<Regexp::Common>.

=head2 C<$RE{list}{-pat}{-sep}{-lastsep}>

Returns a pattern matching a list of (at least two) substrings.

If C<-pat=I<P>> is specified, it defines the pattern for each substring
in the list. By default, I<P> is C<qr/.*?\S/>. In Regexp::Common 0.02
or earlier, the default pattern was C<qr/.*?/>. But that will match
a single space, causing unintended parsing of C<a, b, and c> as a
list of four elements instead of 3 (with C<-word> being C<(?:and)>).
One consequence is that a list of the form "a,,b" will no longer be
parsed. Use the pattern C<qr /.*?/> to be able to parse this, but see
the previous remark.

If C<-sep=I<P>> is specified, it defines the pattern I<P> to be used as
a separator between each pair of substrings in the list, except the final two.
By default I<P> is C<qr/\s*,\s*/>.

If C<-lastsep=I<P>> is specified, it defines the pattern I<P> to be used as
a separator between the final two substrings in the list.
By default I<P> is the same as the pattern specified by the C<-sep> flag.

For example:

      $RE{list}{-pat=>'\w+'}                # match a list of word chars
      $RE{list}{-pat=>$RE{num}{real}}       # match a list of numbers
      $RE{list}{-sep=>"\t"}                 # match a tab-separated list
      $RE{list}{-lastsep=>',\s+and\s+'}     # match a proper English list

Under C<-keep>:

=over 4

=item $1

captures the entire list

=item $2

captures the last separator

=back

=head2 C<$RE{list}{conj}{-word=I<PATTERN>}>

An alias for C<< $RE{list}{-lastsep=>'\s*,?\s*I<PATTERN>\s*'} >>

If C<-word> is not specified, the default pattern is C<qr/and|or/>.

For example:

      $RE{list}{conj}{-word=>'et'}        # match Jean, Paul, et Satre
      $RE{list}{conj}{-word=>'oder'}      # match Bonn, Koln oder Hamburg

=head2 C<$RE{list}{and}>

An alias for C<< $RE{list}{conj}{-word=>'and'} >>

=head2 C<$RE{list}{or}>

An alias for C<< $RE{list}{conj}{-word=>'or'} >>
