I have lines

i am picking line by below code $mn=$line -csplit "incr|full|manual" but i also need way to capture which one was match incr or full or manual in a line. any idea ?

Answer 1

Use () to capture the matched word, this will make PowerShell include it in the output from the split operation:

$mn = $line -csplit "(incr|full|manual)"
$mn[1] # this will now contain `incr`, `full` or `manual`
