(no subject)



Hello all

Wish you all a happy new year, if you follow the 
European/Georgian Calendar System ..

I would like to know more about the regular expression 
search in maxima.

Say i have a string "abcdefghijkl...."

Starting at index I, in the direction forward or backward, 
i want to find a substring in form A^n B^m ..

where A in {a,b,c,...,z}, 0<= n<= 1, m >= 1, etc (the 
exact reqs would of course depend on the problem in 
hand)..

Where do I start, google does not seem to be much helpful, 
and i am kind of lost in the "The Maxima Book".

Please help, Sorry for my bad Englisch.

Regards from Germany
Sean
