I get a different result from what you got, which suggests you had changed your regexp, perhaps to something like this:
pat =: '\(\s+(\d+)\,(\d+)\s+(\d+)\,(\d+)\s+\)' Ah... I now see that your followup has an updated pattern... --------------- Anyways, what I don't understand is what you meant by: "How can I merge this result back to the variable test." Do you mean that you want to replace matched digit sequences in that text with some sort of representation of their offsets? Or are you intending something else?
