Message-ID: <561FF039.9020202@eastlink.ca> (raw)
I'm not sure if this is even a good question:
test2 ()
{
sstring="before inside after"
if [[ "$sstring" = (#b)([^i]#inside)(*) ]];
then
echo "\n\ndo nothing\n\n"
fi
echo one $match[1]
echo two $match[2]
}
... all good. But is is possible to populate 'match'
without the 'if' test? Point being that I don't really
want to 'do anything' except populate 'match'. There's
no problem, I'm just wondering if it can be expressed
more simply and I'll bet it can.
Better question:
In this construction " [^i] " is it possible to use a
string rather than a character in the exclusion test?
I've found convoluted ways to do it, but is there anything
simple?
