Since you asked, I put up a complete program at http://pastebin.com/d8GNL0kx
I don't know if it will run on Perl earlier than version 5.10 and I'm 
pretty sure it wont run below version 5.8.
Also, I realized that I had completely neglected the case of a closing 
bracket that is never opened (e.g. "stuff] stuff"). The program I put on 
paste bin has an updated regex that handles this case.
