- I did not notice this until now, but Edit does not find regular
- expressions properly, or at least it does not understand Unix-style
- regular expressions.
-
- a) Is this a bug/limitation?
- b) Is Edit's regexp syntax different from normal Unix-style regexp?
- c) If a, is it fixed under 3.0?
-
- Please respond by email as I think that must have been discussed
- before. Thank you for your time and attention.
