Proposed change
This change adds support for regex capture groups as input arguments (closes #10). It does so by taking advantage of named & numbered capture groups in the standard library.
This can be used in both "respond" and "hear" rules. Doing so adds argument support for "hear" rules, discussed in #204.
In the following example, the capture group named
word
is processed as an argument with the same name.See the unit tests for more detailed examples.
