Hi all,

I noticed re-search-forward has a corresponding backward version, while string-match doesn't have in the manual. Dose string-match-backward exist?

Thank you very much!

What does `string-match' have to do with searching?  Maybe you mean
`search-forward' and its counterpart `search-backward'?

Bye,

No, sorry.  It wouldn't be difficult to add, OTOH.
