Synopsis:
$igetrmatches(<array> <string>)
Technical:
This function treats the items in array as wildcard patterns, and returns a word list of index values such that
for i in ($igetrmatches(<array> <string>)) { if (<string> =~ igetitem(<array> $i)) { echo True } else { echo False } }
only outputs True and enver False. This is the converse of getrmatches.
Practical:
The $getmatches() function is used to retrieve all items in the given array that match the given pattern. Similarly, $getrmatches() is used to retrieve all items that match the given string.
Returns:
list of item numbers corresponding to matches
