Re: how to translate lua pattern "(.*)and(.*)" with lpeg re ?

[albertmcchan <albertmcchan@...>]

looks like it is not easy to convert lua pattern "(.*)and(.*)" after all

my last attempt, re.compile "{(!'and' .)*} 'and' {.*}" was close, but still wrong

the re pattern correspond to lua pattern "(.-)and(.*)", not the greedy version.

:-(
