Name; Person 1 Tag: This Tag: That Tag: These Name: Person 2 Tag: These Tag: This Name: Person 3 Tag: That Tag: These Tag: This Name: Person 4 Tag: This Tag: Those tag: These Name: Person 5 Tag: That One of my attempts recsel -e \( 'Tag ~ "This"' && 'Tag ~ "That"' \) -P Name Contacts.rec returns the command prompt only (no error message)Please note that "Tag" is the field name (label) and that the field values for "Tag" may entered randomly, and sometimes later when the rec file is updated and that each contact may have any number of "Tags". Therefore I do not believe that using subscripts such as Tag[1] would be useful.
Also, the "recsel -e 'Tag ~ "This"' -P Name Contacts.rec" does return a lsit of Persons 1 - 4
I have very little (i.e. nil) regex knowledge, so any help would be appreciated.
If this rescel is not possible, could this be considered as a future enhancement to Recutils?
