Hmmm
While playing with a one liner for this thread I came across a disturbing
difference between core on Solaris and Win.
here I have split the offending line with a print to see what was
happening;
--><--
d: charset{#{0}-#{9}}a: complement d parse m: read %foo r:[any a p:
(print copy/part :p 8)
opt[3 d{-}4 d(change/part :p {###-####} 8)any r]skip any r]
--><--
using the same text (from below)
on win it works fine, on solaris it fails badly
on windows ...
