Subject: Re: Parsing an apache access log line

/([0-9.]*) (-) (-) (\[.*\]) (\".*\") ([0-9]*) ([0-9]*)/ comes to mind,
although I'm probably wrong with the backslashes - some of the things
I escaped probably aren't significant characters and some other ones
probably are.

Could you provide a test suite with more lines?

Hey, wouldn't /(?^| )[^\S]*|\".*\")(?| )/, work to find each of the
tokens (that is, iterate it to find ALL matches)?
