/^$RE{lingua}{palindrome}$/ and print "is a palindrome\n";
}
DESCRIPTION
Please consult the manual of Regexp::Common for a general description
of the works of this interface.
Do not use this module directly, but load it via Regexp::Common.
$RE{lingua}{palindrome}
Returns a pattern that recognizes a palindrome, a string that is the
same if you reverse it. By default, it only matches strings consisting
of letters, but this can be changed using the "{-chars}" option. This
option takes a character class (default is "[A-Za-z]") as argument.
If "{-keep}" is used, only $1 will be set, and set to the entire match.
This pattern requires at least perl 5.6.0.
