Terminal.matchCheck

Checks if the text in and around the specified position matches any of the regular expressions previously set using vte_terminal_match_add(). If a match exists, the text string is returned and if @tag is not %NULL, the number associated with the matched regular expression will be stored in @tag.

If more than one regular expression has been set with vte_terminal_match_add(), then expressions are checked in the order in which they were added.
