Need Help??

The first one does not match as the OP contains two spaces at least between 'cd' and 'ghi'.

Also what would he expect for 'cd cd ghi'?

He clearly doesn't want the middle "cd" as that's his question.	[reply]

But he says the 'EF' would be a random text, so it could be 'cd' as well? And what about 'cd accd ghi'?	[reply]

But he says the 'EF' would be a random text, so it could be 'cd' as well? That makes no sense. `cd` is part of his pattern. And what about 'cd accd ghi'? Not sure, though it's just a question of using or not using `\b`.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
