I think a better discription is required to answer this.

hehe

sure
is it possible to do this:

regexp -all "$var blablabla..etc $var" $var

I've tried different ones but all I get is differebt errors

it's within a loop and the vars will be different each time.... the loop will be executed about 1500 times and all the vars will be valid numbers only.

That still doesn't give me an idea of what you are trying to do!

Give an example of the loop, what goes into it, and what comes out of it.

The regexp command you gave was not even complete.`
