Yes, it isn't. Try to use s/// instead.

Just keep in mind that this will change 'aaa11bbb12' to 'aaa0101bbb0102' which is probably not what the OP wants. But right now i can't think of a solution myself...


Be aware of the /g-modifier at the end of s///. Read `perldoc perlop` to
learn more about this substitution operator.
