O.P. [help] Matching
Hi anyone point me to a document that gives good examples of the MATCH function?

I've been looking at some scripts from the forum here but I found it really tough to understand how to match patterns.

What I want to do is match 'someemail@someehost.com' in any message I send using the string from the msgsend function.

I prefer some link to a document than code to do it. But if you only know how to code it and no documents for me to read..I'll take that as well. Thanks!

edit: Here's an example of what I want to do:

Message from me to a@a.com: "Hi, please send your a message to b@b.com and tell him that I've sent you his way in search of the light."

Script would do: match the email from the message and send the part of the text after the b@b.com to b@b.com.

Message from me to b@b.com: "to a@a.com: and tell him I've sent you his way in search of the light"

Hope that helps.

Iterate ChatWnd Counts something like this
code:
var Contacts = ChatWnd.Contacts;
var e = new Enumerator(Contacts);
for(; !e.atEnd(); e.moveNext())
Contact = e.item();
if("someemail@someehost.com" == Contact.Email){
//do whatever
}

Match uses a regular expression to search for parts.

Match isn't really what you want here, you want a full regex search.

You can do that by using a regex object.
