I think that's all posix provides. Separate regexp libraries might do better. I was going to add a note about no nulls in the manual, but never did. Speaking of regexps, what I think I will do for the docs is put someting like the following about locale chars. (I got into trouble trying to match some shift-jis bytes when in a utf-8 locale.) POSIX regexp functions interpret both regexps and input strings in the locale character set. Since Guile strings are currently merely bytes (*note Conversion to/from C::), care should be taken when working with non-ASCII characters. If `setlocale' has been called and selects a multibyte codeset (*note Locales::), then non-ASCII bytes may be interpreted as a multibyte character. _______________________________________________ Guile-devel mailing list Guile-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/guile-devel
