hi, I think I have found a document bug for expr: in the info page of "String expressions", it says "`expr' supports pattern matching and other string operators. These have *lower* precedence than both the numeric and ...",. But I think the string expressions have *higher* precedence than numeric operator. For example, this expression should return 17:
$ expr ' a16b' : ' a\(..\)b' + 1 And in "Numeric expressions" and "Relations for expr", there are the same problems as this: they state the wrong precedence. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
