Thanks, but thing is: my need is little more complex than finding sequences. I'm looking for expressions in natural language text. The expressions must be extracted without ambiguities so I have cases for occurrences in the beginning of line (aka '^(#\w+)([\s.,;\:!?]*)') in the middle of the line (aka '([\s.,;\:!?]+)(#\w+)([\s.,;\:!?]+)') or at the end (which may be simplified to the second case...). So, if I find several hashtags in a text like:
'A política no Brasil está complicada #FAIL porque a corrupção impera #CRIME. De qualquer forma os #PETRALHAS, que tudo justificam, levam o país ao #CAOS' I want two things: 1st and obvious: #( '#FAIL' '#CRIME' '#PETRALHAS' '#CAOS') 2nd: the line minus hashtags: 'A política no Brasil está complicada porque a corrupção impera. De qualquer forma os, que tudo justificam, levam o país ao' When I use regexps to process the line, for instance: bfr := line copyWithRegex: '#\w+' matchesReplacedUsing [ :e | '' ]. I can have trouble because it will extract things like #ANOTAÇÃO# which is not a hashtag but will match. And I'm trying to avoid doing the Lex/Yacc thing here :D Best regards, CdAB -- The information contained in this message is confidential and intended to the recipients specified in the headers.
