%match help
|
What do i need to do to get this to work?
I want to match with the %match function: H:2668 M:2720 E:12240 W:13200 [eb]
#say %match( "H:2668 M:2720 E:12240 W:13200 [eb]", "H:%d M:%d E:%d W:%d ~[eb]")
output: 0
#say %match( "%quote("H:2668 M:2720 E:12240 W:13200 [eb]")", "H:%d M:%d E:%d W:%d ~[eb]")
output: 0  |

ok so i tried to modify it a bit and it gave me a zero
#SAY %match( H:2668 M:2720 E:12240 W:13200 [eb], H:%d M:%d E:%d W:%d ~[*~]) <-- want a wild card in there... |

I think I remember reading somewhere that the * wildcard also matches the following space too. If it is grabbing the end brace would that be throwing off the pattern? If the letters between the braces [] don't have any spaces you could try %w. Did you play with the pattern match checker in the Editor Window?

Why don't you just use your pattern as a trigger pattern? That will save you all the headaches of trying to make it work %match.
