Re: Problem matching on [.]

This behavior is as expected.

> print(string.match("x", "[f]+"))
nil
> print(string.match("x", "f"))
nil
> print(string.match("x", "f+"))
nil


> print(string.match("b", "ab"))
nil
> print(string.match("b", "a+b"))
nil
> print(string.match("b", "a*b"))
b

Using * where + is meant is a common error in Lua patterns and in regex-land.
