Documentation Doc error for @BETWEEN

[dcantor]

Charles Dye,

@BETWEEN — Returns the portion of a string between two delimiters. 
...
(Exception: If you want to use a close bracket as a delimiter, escape it.)

Nope, close brackets prove not to be exceptional for this plugin.

C:\> echo %@between[[^],[6] This is line 6 of some file.]
TextUtils plugin: Missing comma

C:\> echo %@between[[],[6] This is line 6 of some file.]
6

 

[Charles Dye]

It should probably say "mismatched close bracket".

 

[dcantor]

Or UNMATCHED close bracket.

OTOH, these also don't work:

> echo %@between[a^],[a6] This is line 6 of some file.]
TextUtils plugin: Missing comma

> echo %@between[a],[a6] This is line 6 of some file.]
TextUtils plugin: Missing argument

 

[dcantor]

For what it's worth my intended usage is:

set linenum=%@between[[],%@execstr[*ffind /k /m /l /t"some text"  somefile.txt]]
