Frank, you keep replying only to me. Change that to: only to the

Sorry for that - too many things to do at the same time.
I found what my problem probably is: My trigger strings contain "$"
character. Properly escaped as "\$", but I believe it is interpreted
some way I do not fully understand.
Change the \$ to [$] to make it survive any reparsing.
In particular: Regexp ' \$[a-z]+' properly catches words starting
with "$" that have at least one space in front of them. However, if
used in conjunction with "${SPACE}", it sometime catches a perfectly
normal word at the beginning of a new line that has no "$" in it.
A bare $ matches a newline.
That's not what I meant. What I meant was that ' \$[a-z]+' works as
expected, but '${SPACE}\$[a-z]+' sometimes catches a word at the beginning
of a new line which (the word) does not contain any "$".
Thanks very much for you help, I'll do the verbose logging as soon as I find
some time to dedicate to this problem.
