> local extract = string.gsub(workrev, "^mtn: %[merged%] (%x*)$", "%1")This will not work with multi-line string input, because ^ marks the very beginning and $ the very end of the string, not the line. But even if you remove these, you'll only process the replacement of the matched line, while you actually want to extract something. This should work better: local extract = string.match(workrev, "mtn: %[merged%] (%x*)") Thomas. -- GPG-Key 0x160D1092 | tommyd3...@jabber.ccc.de | http://thomaskeller.biz Please note that according to the EU law on data retention, information on every electronic information exchange might be retained for a period of six months or longer: http://www.vorratsdatenspeicherung.de/?lang=en
