Re: s/.// increases length - bug or badly documented featureby erikharrison (Deacon) |

All I have is Camel 2nd, and but I remember it stating that in regexes, characters are really just bytes for now( as several people have already mentioned). What I don't understand is why the length increases. I can understand not getting the desired behavior, but deleting a byte from a string should still reduce the length, correct? Or at least keep it the same? Cheers,Erik
