But it was, as I say, my bad. Ignore me for now while I prepare a definitive problem case. But a question in the meantime: > ... it helps > pinpointing where I have forgotten some \'s or something (I am used to > Perls regexp syntax, so remembering all the leaning toothpicks in Emacs > regexps is sometimes a problem :-)) Yeah, me too. For example: why does the . in domain1.com require the "\\" when included in the fancy split approach, but no toothpicks at all are needed when the same string is included in the normal (non fancy) approach? At first I assumed it was because in the fancy approach the string is a regexp while in non-fancy it's just a plain string. But that's not true is it?

Thanks Štěpán. I think I'd figure that but what was confusing me was the fact that an unescaped dot was shown in examples for the non-fancy split method.

So: The person who wrote the stuff, understands it in intense detail without the documentation, and therefore has little or no need of the documentation thinks the documentation is more readable as it is.

In my opinion the error (yes, IMO it _is_ an error) should be fixed at least for the reason this whole thread started -- it induced major confusion for Tommy, who, upon seeing the unescaped dot, began to wonder if there was some magic going on with the fancy splitting rules. (Yes, it's funny to have discussions about things like this, but not having sloppy examples in the docs is precisely the way to prevent such discussions.)

I don't think Štěpán suggested it would make the documentation > more readable to fix that. You're right. Štěpán explained the thing to me and then flagged it to The Documenters. *I* am suggesting that Štěpán's flagging was useful and that, contrary to Lars's view, the proposed fix is worthwhile and makes things more readable[1]. And my underlying point was that while Lars is an undoubted expert in Gnus, *I* am an expert in being a new and clueless user of it. The documentation has an intended core audience, and it ain't Lars. So Štěpán's point was one of regexp structure; mine, one of pedagogy. All that said. I'm new here and have invested a mere fraction of the hours in this project that y'all have. So don't hesitate to pat me on the head and say "Shhhh! The grown-ups are speaking." :-) Tommy [1] Or rather, it makes it more consistent and understandable -- a.k.a. better. I'm with everyone else in that adding toothpicks rarely makes for improved *read*-ability. But that -- toothpicks (and (to further make the (undoubtedly made (albeit obliquely) by now) point) parens) -- is the life we have chosen for ourselves. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 19+ messages in thread
