Nre Package Commands


NAME

nredump - Dump the compiled form of a regular expression into a Tcl list

SYNOPSIS

package require nre ?2.0?
nredump exp

DESCRIPTION

The nredump command dumps internal information about the compiled form of a regular expression into a Tcl list and returns the list. This can be helpful if a regular expression is not doing what you expect it to. Dumping will show you the actual literal strings in a regular expression which may not be what you expected them to be due to standard Tcl parsing.

See the nrematch man page for a description of regular expressions.
