1. wildcard_match; Return position
Hey,
Do anyone know of a wildcard_match version that returns the position id for the
first occurance of the search?
The one that is included in the standard euphoria archives do only return true
or false, or rather one and zero.
Regards,
Kenneth 'ZNorQ' Nilsson

It's a bit heavy handed if you're not already using it, but wxEuphoria
has regular expression support now.

You can try EuRegExp in the archive, it will give you this sort of info and
more. It's an Euphoria-oriented regular expression library, mostly compatible
with Perl's conventions.

Hey Matt,
Ok, I'll have a look into that. I'm not quite fluid in reg.exp. use, and I quite
urgenty need the updated version of wildcard_match, but seeing that I have no
choice, I better get up to speed asap! :)
Thanks, Matt.

Ok, I'll check this out. As I told Matt, I'm not quite the wizz-kid in reg.exp.,
but this'll be as good as any time to learn it.
Thanks to you both.

Hmm. As soon as I include it, I first get an error saying that EuRegExp.e has an
error at line 443 - w has not been declared.
So I added w to the sequence a few lines above, and tried again - but this time
I got a new error;
EuRegExp.e @ line 913; search_again takes 4 arguments
else option-=8 z=search_again(s0,s1,options)
^
Is it me, or what?
(Keep in mind, I haven't gotten around to use any of the code yet - it's just
included!)

Sorry, I didn't check last night, but I will tonight. I haven't touched this
code for years...

Rgr, thanks.
However, I did solve the problem at hand, so the use of the archive isn't that
urgent anymore. However, it would be nice to have these features ready for future
use.

I just wrote this in test.exw:
include euregexp.e
pretty_print(1,reg_search("[!d-i](2,4)","The quick brown fox",0),{2})
?machine_func(26,0)
and it printed, as expected:
{
4,
{1,4},
"The",
{
{
" q",
"uick brown fox"
},
{
" qu",
"ick brown fox"
}
},
{
" quick brown fox",
{
{
0,
2,
4,
1,
{
" c",
{106'j',255}
}
}
}
}
}
which is all explained in the docs.
Does the above work for you?
If so, could I see your code one way or another?
