I get an error when doing things like these:

  (when (string-match "\\(some\\)" "<something>")
    (match-string 1))

  (when (string-match "<.*>" "<something>")
    (match-string 0))

Should not match-string work here?


Use this instead:

(when (string-match "\\(some\\)" "<something>")
  (match-string 1 "<something>"))

(when (string-match "<.*>" "<something>")
  (match-string 0 "<something>"))



Eh, yes. Thanks.
