you don't have to grapple with that mess sed gives you if you use double quotes as field delimiters. I do not understand your requirement enough but i can tell you, there's better ways to what you want without that much regexp.

Name = "abc"
The regex I'm using to match the same is:

ppi::token::regexp
PPI::Token::Regexp(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation PPI::Token::Regexp(3)
NAME
PPI::Token::Regexp - Regular expression abstract base class
INHERITANCE
PPI::Token::Regexp
isa PPI::Token
isa PPI::Element
DESCRIPTION
The "PPI::Token::Regexp" class is never instantiated, and simply provides a common abstract base class for the three regular expression
classes. These being:
m// - PPI::Token::Regexp::Match
s/// - PPI::Token::Regexp::Substitute
tr/// - PPI::Token::Regexp::Transliterate
The names are hopefully obvious enough not to have to explain what each class is. See their pages for more details.
To save some confusion, it's worth pointing out here that "qr//" is not a regular expression (which PPI takes to mean something that will
actually examine or modify a string), but rather a quote-like operator that acts as a constructor for compiled Regexp objects.
METHODS
The following methods are inherited by this class' offspring:
get_match_string
The "get_match_string" method returns the portion of the regexp that performs the match.
get_substitute_string
The "get_substitute_string" method returns the portion of the regexp that is substituted for the match, if any. If the regexp does not
substitute, "undef" is returned.
get_modifiers
The "get_modifiers" method returns the modifiers of the regexp.
get_delimiters
The "get_delimiters" method returns the delimiters of the regexp as an array. The first element is the delimiters of the match string, and
the second element (if any) is the delimiters of the substitute string (if any).
SUPPORT
See the support section in the main module.
