Hi Everyone,
I have:
$val="QQ3_1899_CD4".
The output will be:
1899.
I did $val =~ /(\d+)/g; the output is 318994, then i use substr to get those 1899. This is not efficient.
Is any simple way, like just one line can do? Thanks (1 Reply)

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
NAME
fileutil::magic::mimetype - Procedures implementing mime-type recognition
SYNOPSIS
package require Tcl 8.4
package require fileutil::magic::mimetype ?1.0.2?
::fileutil::magic::mimetype filename
_________________________________________________________________
DESCRIPTION
This package provides a command for the recognition of file types in pure Tcl. The output is standardized to mime-types.
The core part of the recognizer was generated from a "magic(5)" file containing the checks to perform to recognize files, and associated
mime-types.
::fileutil::magic::mimetype filename
This command is similar to the command fileutil::fileType.
The output of the command for the specified file is not a list of attributes describing the type of the file, but a list of standard
mime-types the file may have.
This list will be empty if the type of the file is not recognized.
REFERENCES
[1] File(1) sources [ftp://ftp.astron.com/pub/file/] This site contains the current sources for the file command, including the magic
definitions used by it. The latter were used by us to generate this recognizer.
