Maybe I am missing something, but why do I get from this program:
local first = "catalogue-ctan"
local cdata = string.gsub(first,'^catalogue-', '')
print ("first = "..first)
print ("cdata = "..cdata)
the output:
first = catalogue-ctan
cdata = e-ctan
Same happens with
local cdata = string.match(first,'^catalogue-(.*)')
