I changed the expression according the manual to:
'(shell-pushd-regexp "p\(ush\|\)d")
This is not the proper string syntax for backslashes. Remember that
there
are two levels of quoting, first the regexp quoting and, on top of it,
the
string quoting. Both use the same character for quoting, the
backslash.
So in order to get the backslash through the string quoting level you
have
to quote it with a backslash. Or, even better, use the customize
interface to change the variable, which removes the second level of
quoting for you.
Oh, thank you! There where only backslashes missing!!
Actually I first introduced these variables from *Customization* --
could be I there used an expression with backslashes, which were
escaped, so nothing worked. Then I tried it myself ...
There should be a flashing writing at this spot: jwwym (just write what
you mean) -- could this mislead someone too?
