I tried your patch and found two problems. 1. When I use `^' as the first character of the pattern, I got the following warning. % expr abcde : ^abc expr: warning: unportable BRE: ^abc': using ^' as the first character of the basic regular expression is not portable; it is being ignored 3 According to the man page you spotted, The regular expression is anchored to the beginning of the string with an implicit ``^''. so I removed `^' from the pattern. % expr abcde : abc 3 2. The exit status of "text expr $string : $pattern" seems to be always 0. % test expr abcde : abc; echo $? 0 % test expr abcde : xxx; echo $? 0 so I changed it to check whether the return value of `expr' equals to zero. % expr abcde : abc 3 % expr abcde : xxx 0 % test expr abcde : abc -ne 0; echo $? 0 % test expr abcde : xxx -ne 0; echo $? 1 I made another patch again. I tested it on the following machines, and both work well. % uname -a Linux host1.example.com 2.6.9-34.0.2.EL #1 Fri Jul 7 19:24:57 CDT 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux % uname -a SunOS host2.example.com 5.6 Generic_105182-25 i86pc i386 i86pc Could you please try it again?

FreeBSD has no GNU expr, and it doesn't have 'substr'. http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=expr&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=FreeBSD+6.1-RELEASE&format=html I changed your patch followings and it seems work.

OK, I got it. I found that the pure Bourne Shell (not bash) can't recognize ${parameter:offset:length} style syntax.
