I've noticed match_begin to match incomplete arguments to a string, but only
at the beginning of the string. Example: match_begin("insanity", "ins")
would return true.
Is there any matching that matches incomplete arguments to a string, but at
the end? Something like match_end("insanity", "ity")? Thanks
