StringParse

Parse a string using a pattern with placeholders in it.

This node is essentially the reverse of StringFormat and supports different placeholder styles. This can be used to parse for example subject or session names out of file paths. Note that, if you also happen to be iterating over multiple files, the PathIterator is probably the better tool to do this parsing. Version 0.1.0
