Hi list,

the following two statements should provide the exakt same strings:
(match:substring (string-match "_(.*?)_" "a_ä_ö_de_fü_") 1)
(match:substring (string-match "_([^_]*)_" "a_ä_ö_de_fü_") 1)

However for me they don't. Here is a log how I tested it:
$ guile
GNU Guile 2.0.11

scheme@(guile-user)> (match:substring (string-match "_(.*?)_" 
"a_ä_ö_de_fü_") 1)
$1 = "ä_ö_de_fü"
scheme@(guile-user)> (match:substring (string-match "_([^_]*)_" 
"a_ä_ö_de_fü_") 1)
$2 = "ä"
scheme@(guile-user)> ,q

I checked the same regexps in Perl and there both results are the same.

Am I overlooking the obvious or is this a bug ?

Best wishes,
Michael
