Vectorized String Functions in AutoIt

1. Introduction In my current workplace at Leverage Retirement, Inc., I use Autoit to automate file management operations, such as copying files to archive directories and checking whether files exist for the morning processes. These operations involve the application of regular expressions to find out whether specific files match a given pattern (e.g. Deposit \d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2}, where \d{x} represents a number of x digits). While there are many string functions in AutoIt, most of them apply only to constants and not arrays.
