Actually, I'm surprised it matches anything at all. Indeed, "\b" in a string in OCaml is an escape sequence for backspace. So the generated regexp looks for a backspace character. The removed line should be: let rex = Re_pcre.regexp (Printf.sprintf "\\b(%s)\\b" r_string) in But it is true that this would (if r_string is set to "toto") match "toto" in "toto-foo". Am I understanding right that this is not desired? -- Stéphane
