to WCMATCH or NOT

[devitg]

Hi I have this two possible  string  

 

(setq note "gt8" )

or 

(setq note "ht125,jk34,xx25")

 

My question how to get if  the string note hold a  ,    or not 

as by it  

 (wcmatch  "ht125,jk34,xx25"  "*,*" ) ; return T  

   (wcmatch  "gt8"  "*,*" ) ; it also return T

   Both return T , I need 

 (wcmatch "gt8"  pattern ) ; return NIL

 

    My question how to state the pattern

have to add ` in front of character which has some function.

this is backquote ` (leftside of 1) = grave key,

not quote ' (rightside of L in keyboard)

 

because wcmatch can have multiple pattern like this.

(wcmatch "Name" "???,~*m*,N*")

in this case , means "OR"

 

or can use ascii code of ` = (chr 96)

(wcmatch "ht125,dsdf,sdf" (strcat "*" (chr 96) ",*"))
T
(wcmatch "ht125dsdfsdf" (strcat "*" (chr 96) ",*"))
nil

You could also use lists. list also have a added benefit of easier data manipulation.

 

(setq note (list "ht125" "jk34" "xx25"))
("ht125" "jk34" "xx25")

(member "gt8" note)
nil

(member "jk34" note)
("jk34" "xx25")
