Okay, ignore my last question (except the one about a link to PicAxe).  I just figured the 
syntax (basically by trying every possible permutation).

Now I have a new question:  Turning a string into a regex.
Example:

dcarrera ~ $ irb
>> var = "he"
=> "he"
>> str = "hello world"
=> "hello world"
>> str =~ /var/
=> nil

What am I doing wrong?
