[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #37092] backslash escape character in regexp

[Guillaume]

Follow-up Comment #8, bug #37092 (project octave):

Thanks for the update Rik. If it helps, I can do some tests if you give me a
patch.

Perhaps totally unrelated, but I noticed another problem with regexp:

str='$Id: file.m 1234 2012-08-23 09:12:27Z user $';
regexp(str,['$Id: (?<file>S+) (?<id>[0-9]+) (?<date>S+) ' ...
            '(S+Z) (?<author>S+) $'],'names','once')


MATLAB returns

      file: 'file.m'
        id: '1234'
      date: '2012-08-23'
    author: 'user'


as expected, while Octave returns empty fields.
