Case structures and regular expressions.


Recommended Posts

I think it would be beneficial to have case structures able to select a case based on matching of a regular expression when a string is wired to the switching terminal.

Right now, they can accept ranges of values for one case... i.e. "a...c" will accept any character from a-b. It would be neat to be able to type in something like "foo*, *bar" and have it accept things like "foo, foobar, foo bar, lowbar, low bar" etc.

Great idea! Especially considering the fact that other text based languages have this ability!
