- value argument:
- While it is possible to use literal text content in the value argument, in most practical cases you will want to use a variable here (preceded by #) which has been pre-loaded with multi-line text. Possible sources of such text: a multi-line text control (see get), or a text file (see get text file action).
- number argument:
- Note that line numbering begins with 1.
- Result registers as Failed if value in number is larger than the total lines in the multi-line text.
- expected argument:
- The expected argument can accept regular expressions. Note that argument values that include regular expressions must be entirely enclosed in curly braces {}. As an example,
{[A-Z0-9._%+-]+@[A-Z0-9.-]+\.[A-Z]{2,4}}specifies the pattern for an acceptable email address. More simply,.*represents the general wildcard for regular expressions, so that{.*arch.*}matchesstarch,marching,testarchitect, etc.
- The expected argument can accept regular expressions. Note that argument values that include regular expressions must be entirely enclosed in curly braces {}. As an example,
- This action supports the <ignore> modifier. If the string
<ignore>is present as the value of any of the arguments, or any argument contains an expression that evaluates to<ignore>, the action is skipped during execution.
