OP Ghozer Ameglian cow G Joined: Oct 2006 Posts: 48	im attempting to delete all items NOT matching . for example, items such as nick -> user this -> that would be deleted, and items such as nick.them -> user this.something -> that would NOT be deleted... Im using the code below... Code: alias del_users { var %x = 1 while (%x <= $hfind(nicks,/^?!((.+?)\.(.+?)))/,0,r)) { hdel nicks $hfind(nicks,/^?!((.+?)\.(.+?)))/,%x,r) inc %x } } The trouble is.. if there's 3 entries, it only deletes the first 2... if there's 6 it only deletes the first 5.... i have tried it with var %x = 0 and also tried it as < instead of <= in the while... any ideas???

Try this instead Code: alias del_users { var %x = 1 while (%x <= $hfind(nicks,/^?!((.+?)\.(.+?)))/,0,r)) { hdel nicks $hfind(nicks,/^?!((.+?)\.(.+?)))/,%x,r) dec %x } inc %x }
