If you are only looking for test then /test/ will work and I tried
it on my system with the data above and then made changes to the data and it
still worked as I would have expected. Your /.+test.+/ will work as long as
it is surrounded by sometype of data. The .+ says at least ONE or more. So
test by itself will fail. Test at the beginning or end of line will fail.
if /test/ is failing on the data you have above, then we need to see your
script because it should work for everything you have above by just using
/test/.
Wags ;)
