Provides the most necessary regular expression functions Lua is lacking.

windower.regex.match(string, pattern)

  • string string - String to search
  • pattern string - Regular expression pattern to search for

Returns a table containing matches, if they are found. Nested tables contain further capturing groups. Otherwise returns nil.
