Interesting. That's a bit of a weird request (just the numbers before
the delimiter and nothing else), but I think I see where you're going
with that. I think there's bug in the regex implementation of the
matchText command. This *should* work:

put matchText(tolower(tFiles5),".*([0-9]*)\.", tVar) into tResult
put tVar

but it only returns one digit instead of all of them. The regex is
correct and works outside of rev, but it doesn't work here.
