Dear J enthusiasts,
I try to learn state machine parsing and try to use 4 or 5 action code in
practice.
Here is an example to be concrete.
1. So we have the file:
$ cat test1.txt
1000ddd
2000
ab3000
1xxx
11
22
2. now I want to ideally have three boxes, one containing 1000, 2000,
The fastest to find example here would be parsing of numbers in the
original dictionary parsing example:
https://www.jsoftware.com/help/dictionary/d332.htm
Here, when parsing '1 2 3', each time a space is encountered, the word
is "terminated" and the subsequent 4 actions extend the word. (And in
Thanks Raul for the solution! Wow!
Could you please share some illustrative example of action code 4 and 5,
especially useful in contrast to one word actions?
Kindest regards,
Pawel

Action codes 4 and 5 aren't specifically what I think you would want
in this context. What they allow you to do is tentatively emit a token
and then return to that state to potentially extend the length of that
token. In other words, action codes 4 (and 5) simply give you a longer
word which
Sorry for the duplication. I wasn't sure the message to the beta forum went.
There are some changes in how regex'es work in the last J9.04 beta
that will probably zing many.
