Why not to have an standard > function `collect-matches' as well? A bunch of discussion then followed, and several patches, but it seemed like many people just thought that this didn't seem generally useful enough... and I agree. Gathering regexp matches from a buffer is a three-liner, and chopping out parts of that is easy enough with seq-take and friends, so adding separate functionality for this just doesn't seem warranted, in my opinion. So I'm closing this bug report. -- (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no
