some parsing

Hi, why "some" includes space chars in x?

>> parse "a b c" [copy x some ["a"] to end]

== true

>> x

== "a "

>> parse "a b c" [copy x ["a"] to end]

== true

>> x

== "a"

>> parse "a b c" [copy x "a" to end]

== true

>> x

== "a"

I don't know the reason that parse behaves this way, it may be a bug. =20 It seems to be something to do with the automatic whitespace handling. =20 If you use the /all refinement which lets you handle whitespaces some does what you expect.

a == true Regards Peter
