Subject: fix for parsing bracketed expression
Date: Thu, 24 Feb 2022 22:41:01 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220225024103.1026629-1-david@tethera.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <87y221txsi.fsf@athena.silentflame.com>
This is not a complete fix, which is hard because of the way we
implement regular expressions. Sean's original examples still won't
work, but hopefully the tests in the second patch show how to make
something similar work. This is probably a good time to mention that
this kind of thing is easier in the sexp query parser.
