Hi Pablo, unfortunately, that it is not possible: http://lua-users.org/wiki/PatternsTutorial, section Limitations. The best, Tomáš On Tue, May 28, 2024 at 06:12:51PM +0200, Pablo Rodriguez via ntg-context wrote:
Dear list,
I have the following sample:
\starttext \startTEXpage[pagestate=start, offset=1em] \startluacode local str = "this is that" context(str:match("(this|these)")) \stopluacode \stopTEXpage \stoptext
In short, I would like to know whether it is possible to have the regular expression (this|these) as a Lua pattern.
I mean, I need complete strings and I haven’t found the way to do it.
Many thanks for your help,
Pablo ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki!
