string definition pattern

[sullerandras]

In the readme:

'I have $count "$string"' would translate to /^I have (.*) "([^"]*)")$/.

This is not true. It will be translated to /I have (.*) "([^"]*)")/, without the ^ and $ signs. Can you update the readme, or fix this issue in the source?

Nice catch, thank you for reporting this. The README is correct, the code is not. We'll fix that.

In addition to this problem, the original string is not properly escaped:

Given('I have $count1 + $count2 "$string"')

will translate to

/I have (.*) + (.*) "([^"]*)")/

instead of the expected

/I have (.*) \+ (.*) "([^"]*)")/.
