MATCHALL()

FUNCTION: matchall(<string>,<pattern>[,<delim>])

This function works identically to the match() function, save that it returns all matches, not just the first: It returns the index numbers of all words in the list <string> which match <pattern>.

Examples: > say matchall(This is a test of a test,test) You say, "4 7" > say matchall(This is testing a test,tes*) You say, "3 5"
