Also, why are you allowing pipe characters within the language spec? ;-)

How about simply:

language\s*=\s*([a-zA-Z-]+)

?

Maybe

language\s*=\s*([^;,\s]+)

is even better (more flexible). dunno.

Hi André,

> language\s*=\s*([^;,\s]+)

Your expression works well and is simpler than mine.

+1 to update the doc with it instead of my proposal.

Thanks :)
