Using the fc method is certainly a good way to do case insensitive

Hi Laurent,
Thank you! Another weapon in my tool box!
Question: this confused me when I first look at it. I am use to
the ":x" command being outside the first "/". For instance
s:g/
What are the rules for what goes inside and what goes outside?
Also, do y have a link to what the various ":x" commands are
that I can use?
I generally prefer to use "contains", "starts-with", and
"ends-with" when the string is full of trash that regex needs
to escape. For example:
if $Line.contains( '<h1>HWiNFO <span class="modraDownload2">' & '</span>
Installer</h1>' ) {
Many thanks,
-T
