extract string

[Drew Van Zandt]

perl

split on the char pair ,"
Take last element of returned array, either remove the " at the end or
replace the one you ate with the split.
Keep a running variable containing largest length encountered so far.
Add 10 to be safe.  ;-)

Any regexp I have to think about for more than 30 seconds is unlikely to be
used unless it greatly improves my execution speed...and then only if I have
a LOT of data to process.  :-)
