  18. Hi,
  19.  
  20. I am writing a script to a serial line
  21. and am trying to test for the following unique string:
  22.  
  23. ^[[6;17Htestingtest 
  24.  
  25. Currently I have :
  26. minput 2 \27[6;17H
  27.  
  28. However this is not unique enough for me, because the text could be
  29. any english character. I need to check something like this:
  30.  
  31. minput \27[6;17H[A-Z][a-z]{1-9}
  32. which won't work. Is there some other way to accomplish the same
  33. thing?
  34.  
  35. Thanks,
  36. -Andy
