If memory serves, 's' means that '.' also matches carriage returns, 
while 'm' means that ^ and $ match the beginning of string (as opposed 
to line) and the end of string (as opposed to line) respectively. Or 
maybe it's the reverse :-)

I always use both when dealing with multiline string 'cause it works for 
me...

As for $TOKEN_RE, take a look at Petal/Hash/String.pm
