Subject: no wildcards/anchors allowed in pattern? ${f:s/pattern/_s&}
Date: Thu, 8 Sep 2022 12:56:41 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <c7008a2b-9403-eed4-3f55-5e7f0debeb55@rayninfo.co.uk> (raw)

Hi

This works for me and allows me to use memory '&' but I'm frustrated 
that I don't seem to be able to use anchors / wildcards etc in the pattern

f=dog.png ;echo $f '->' ${f:s/./_s&}
dog.png -> dog_s.png

the alternative syntax allows pattern to be a regexp but has no regexp 
memory


f=dog.png.png ;echo $f '->' ${f/%.png/_s.png}
dog.png.png -> dog.png_s.png

(be delighted to be told I'm wrong!)
