Re: [PHP-DEV] More preg_match_* control

[Andi Gutmans]

I wonder if these people have a summary of things they ideally need. Then 
we could have ext/bioinformatics. Who knows, it might bring PHP to new places.
Anyway, I'm neutral about the parameter change. Will it be a default parameter?

Hi,

Apparently a few people are doing a lot of bioinformatics data sifting
with PHP and one of them asked me if it would be possible to add a
parameter to preg_match_* functions to indicate the starting offset for
the search. I think it's a good idea, and having looked at the current
implementation, I think this parameter can just come after the 'flags'
one. It won't be used that often, so specifying 0 for flags in that case
is okay. Any thoughts or objections?
