What do you mean by offset? If you simply mean the index of

as your example seems to indicate, you can zip the matches with

If you want the offset in the string where each match begins I

you're out of luck. I needed something similar a while ago and
the best
I could find was using the cumulative length of the pre
property.
Sorry for my confusing example!
Yes, I was looking for the offset in the string where the matches
begin.
I did some programming in PHP in the past. Their preg_match_all
function has an optional offset_capture flag. I was hoping for
something similar in std.regex...
Good tip, I'll use the cumulative length of pre.
Thanks you both for your replies!
