Description

(sorry, mario. it was me.)

The manual says that string-match is identical to string-search if regexp is given, but as far as I tried, it's not.

Hi Daishi! No problem at all. Nice to see you back! Thanks for reporting tickets.

Can you give an example where this fails?

Daishi, you're right. It was like that before we switched to irregex as the regex implementation. I have changed the documentation accordingly (note that regex has been taken from the core and turned into an egg).
