I think I found a bug when using do-scans :

The same regex with a simple scan is OK :

CL-USER 34 > (cl-ppcre:scan *scanner* "simple string 4-") 14 16 #() #()

Which version of CL-PPCRE (current is 0.8.0) and which Lisp is this? I can't reproduce this problem with CMUCL 19a or AllegroCL 7.0 beta.

Please use the mailing list for bug reports, thanks.

Cheers, Edi.
