| Summary | Document PARSE `TO integer` and `THRU integer` operations |
|---|---|
| Description |
The PARSE keywords TO and THRU also take an integer! argument, which seems to effect absolute positioning. I couldn't find any documentation for these operations or their desired behaviour, hence this CC issue to keep around as a reminder. Sources I checked: - Rebol 3 Concepts: Parsing: Summary of Parse Operations http://www.rebol.com/r3/docs/concepts/parsing-summary.html#section-7 - Rebol 2 /Core Users Guid: Parsing: Summary of Parse Operations http://www.rebol.com/docs/core23/rebolcore-15.html#section-10.3 - Rebol 3 Parse Project Documentation http://rebol.net/wiki/Parse_Project - Rebol Programming Wikibook: Parse Expressions http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/REBOL_Programming/Language_Features/Parse/Parse_expressions |
| Example code |
(Example output obtained using R2 2.7.8.) >> parse "abcd" [to 3 "cd"] == true >> parse "abcd" [thru 3 "d"] == true >> parse "abcd" ["ab" to 1 "abcd"] == true |
