Hello,
I don't know if it's me or if it's a bug, so I'm posting this here first
instead of... where am I supposed to post bug reports any way?
Anyway, when using matchText(tSource, tRegex) if in tRegex there happens
to be one of the special characters, this execution error results:
matchChunk: error in pattern expression
bad token: nested *?+
FYI, I'm using matchText to compare two word-lists and find the words
unique to one. With some word-lists, matchText works swell; with others,
matchText (or my scripting of it) seems to choke when things like "*.au"
and "C++" get stored in tRegex. I'm aware that special characters can be
escaped but how can I do this if tRegex is a container and not a
literal? (Hope I'm making more sense to someone about my
containers/literals distinction than I am to myself.)
Thank you.
