[Bug 8014] New: "the character immediately after the last one examined by the sub-algorithm" - what does 'examined' mean? To find the number in "123XY" it has to examine the X, so is that counted? Probably should say "after the last one matched" instead

           Summary: "the character immediately after the last one examined
                    by the sub-algorithm" - what does 'examined' mean? To
                    find the number in "123XY" it has to examine the X, so
                    is that counted? Probably should say "after the last one
                    matched" instead
