Thanks for finding it. Re-reading the thread, I don't see where a difference between "\000" and "" is mentionned. I do, however, see some confusion between "\000" (a string of one NUL char) and "\\000" (a string of 4 chars : backslash, followed by three 0's), e.g. the regexp "^aPDU[^\\000]+[}]+?$" is mentionned (at http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/help-gnu-emacs/2014-04/msg00077.html) Perhaps that would explain the oddities ? -- Nico.
