Hi Massimo.
So, I think the documentation should be updated from:
regexp1|\||regexp2
You mean REGEXP1\|REGEXP2 ...
Matches either regexp1 or regexp2. Use parentheses to use complex
alternative regular expressions. The matching process tries each
alternative in turn, from left to right, and the first one that
succeeds is used. It is a GNU extension.
to:
regexp1|\||regexp2
Same here...
Matches either regexp1 or regexp2. Use escaped parentheses to use
complex alternative regular expressions. The matching process tries
each alternative in turn, from left to right, and the first one that
succeeds is used. It is a GNU extension.
IMO the description is quite clear as it is now but anyway, we lose
nothing by removing this potential source of confusion :)
I updated the manual as suggested.
Thanks!
