ok, so it was my BATCH files
which were eating the ^
go.bat, with a search of,:Results:
regex:red-0.\.
"regex:^red-0.\."
now, the ECHO, with QUOTES, is "OK" - as far as that goes
but when it gets to the actual ES.EXE command-line, i'm wrong, again
ES.BAT, without quotes:
- gives erroneous results, cause the ^ was stripped
ES.BAT, with quotes:
- gives no results, & if not for that, it might be fine, heh ![Wink ;-)]()
i'll have to mess with this again, later...
