Subject: bug#60196: 29.0.60; re-builder should read all forms for the rx syntax
Date: Mon, 19 Dec 2022 17:02:27 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <m2y1r36a1o.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)
Severity: wishlist
re-builder (rx syntax) currently cannot read multiple forms. This
results in suboptimal user experience. For example, even though
(rx "<i>" (group (*? anychar)) "</i>")
is perfectly fine, but in re-builder, one has to write it as follows:
'(and "<i>" (group (*? anychar)) "</i>")
Ideally, re-builder should allow users to simply write
"<i>" (group (*? anychar)) "</i>"
(The relevant function seems to be 'reb-cook-regexp'.)
