Description

IndexOfAnyUnQuoted returns the zero-based index of the first matching element in an array of charaters or strings (AnyOf), but disregards any quoted parts in the string. A quoted part is determined by a starting StartQuote and end-quote character EndQuote.

if no match is found, -1 is returned.

The search can be refined by specifying a (zero-based) index StartIndex. When specified, the search will start at the given character. Not specifying this option is equivalent to specifying zero.

If ACount is given, at most ACount characters in the source string will be considered for the search. This count includes the starting character. Not specifying this argument is equivalent to specifying the amount of remaining characters.

If AMatch is specified, on succesful return it will contain the index of the element in the array that contains the found match.
