Hi, is it possible to match []? My code successfully matches t(n)='t'
using "match name=(size=)==text" but "match name=[size=]==text"
is never matched.

macro TEXT [p] {
local l
define ?s 0
; TEXT t(n)='text'
match =0 name=(size=)==text, ?s p \{
l=$
!define.variable db, name, <text,0>
times (size-($-l)) db 0
define ?s 1
\}
; TEXT t(n)
match =0 name=(size=), ?s p \{
!define.variable db, name, size dup(0)
define ?s 1
\}
; TEXT t='text'
match =0 name==text, ?s p \{
!define.variable db, name, <text,0> ; name db 't', 0
define ?s 1
\}
; TEXT t
match =0 name, ?s p \{
ERROR: 'Size must be specified'
define ?s 1
\}
if ?s eq 0
ERROR: Invalid syntax
end if
}

There is nothing different about matching square brackets, this code works correctly for me:
Code:
macro TEXT [p] {
 local l 
 define ?s 0 
 ; TEXT t[n]='text'
 match =0 name[size]==text, ?s p \{
   display "Matched t[n]='text'"
   define ?s 1
 \} 
 ; TEXT t[n]
 match =0 name[size], ?s p \{
   display "Matched t[n]"
   define ?s 1
 \} 
 ; TEXT t='text' 
 match =0 name==text, ?s p \{ 
   display "Matched t='text'"
   define ?s 1
 \} 
 if ?s eq 0 
   ERR Invalid syntax
 end if 
} 

TEXT tester[4]='test'    


Also note that you don't need to write =( or =) in match expressions, ( and ) are special character symbols so they will not be treated as names, thus the = is redundant there (but does not cause problems, anyway).
