Hi! I have to use pattern matching in lua. I tried the function "string.gmatch". I want to match (iterate over) strings of the type ([0-9]+)(-([0-9]*))?(,|$)
For example: 1,3- (iterations: 1 and 3-) 1-3,6,7 (iterations: 1-3 then 6 then 7) 1-2,5-6,10- (iterations 1-2 then 5-6 then 10-) André Caldas. ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / http://www.ntg.nl/mailman/listinfo/ntg-context webpage : http://www.pragma-ade.nl / http://tex.aanhet.net archive : http://foundry.supelec.fr/projects/contextrev/ wiki : http://contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
