perfect,tank you!

a question: what's the best way to learn the syntax? do you know a good
manual or site? (well, a good introduction in my case... eheh!)

The core part is to learn Basic regular expressions (BRE), for which
there would be plenty of tutorials out there. Rest, it's all similar,
be it grep, sed or awk. http://www.regular-expressions.info/ could be
a good starting point. Equally good are the manuals for above
mentioned programs.
