| Jun 9, 2019 at 5:26 | comment | added | siracusa | @DavidCarlisle That's an easy fix for the simple use case I posted, but it doesn't seem to scale well if you need to combine several regexes that are defined at different locations in the code. So if anyone can see a more general solution, I'd prefer this one. | |
| Jun 8, 2019 at 15:43 | comment | added | Phelype Oleinik | I'd say it's not possible because the regex module ensures that control sequences don't expand to weird stuff, so it's most certainly by design that the text inserted by \u is matched literally, and not parsed again. I dare say it's for the best. You'd need to manually expand \l_foo_tl before \regex_const:Nn compiles the regex (like David just suggested, for example). (And I agree with your statement about the output of \regex_show:N. Flie an issue! :-) | |
