Experience tells me that this should be probably written as
"\\(\\[[0-9]+\\] \\)*\\([a-zA-Z0-9.$_]+\\)\\.[a-zA-Z0-9$_<>(),]+ \
\\(([a-zA-Z0-9.$_]+:\\|line=\\)\\([0-9.,]+\\)"
but I'm not quite sure since `gud.el' is one of the few Emacs files that
do not consistently use `\\]' to match a right bracket.
I do not see what this problem has to do with "\\]" vs ']'.
This seems to be just a case of forgetting to double up `\' for Lisp
syntax. The actually intended regexo would seem to obviously be:
"\\(\\[[0-9]+] \\)* and so on.
The present regexp is valid, but the syntax it is looking for seems
bizarre. On the other hand looking for things like:
"[123] [5] [2034] "
seems to make sense.
Sincerely,
Luc.
