Hi John,

I think regexp is excellent, can even write some expressions (!) but this
one has me foxed, however I'll free up a brain cell or three and think it
through.

I'll also have a dig through the doc and see if it will do what I want - I
found (.*)\1 to behave slightly differently to what I expected, but that
could have been me. As this is for Amateur Radio (hobby) software I'll wait
until later this week, got to write some software for blind people tonight.
