Following the same principle, the magic thing for extracting the
number including the brackets from the %replycounter macro WOULD be:
%SETPATTREGEXP='Re(\[\d+\])?:'%REGEXPBLINDMATCH='%REPLYCOUNTER'%SUBPATT='1'
It returns a blank string for 'Re:' and '[x]' for 'Re[x]:'
I said WOULD because there is a fly swimming in the soup: the macro
doesn't work because of some TB! internals. If you replace
%REGEXPBLINDMATCH='%REPLYCOUNTER' with %REGEXPBLINDMATCH='%TEXT' and
have an appropriate test message, you can see that the macro is
working.
The internal problem is that at the time the regexp is evaluated,
the macro %REPLYCOUNTER contains just a plain 'Re:'; the bracketed
number gets inserted only afterwards, so we got no chance to
retrieve the number with a RegExp.
Perhaps Ritlabs could change this order for 1.45?
Regards
Peter
