New article on string patterns is missing documentation on anchors

Today I checked out the new developer hub article on string patterns:

http://robloxdev.com/articles/string-patterns-reference

Overall I think it’s a nice article, but it seems that the author forgot to put in explanations on how the two anchor characters, ^ and $, function, a topic that was well explained in the original article.

The old URL of the string patterns reference doesn’t redirect to the new URL (http://wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=String_patterns, which was used in wiki.roblox.com/index.php?title=Global_namespace/String_manipulation). Would be neat to either replace the dead link or redirect to the new one.

Bumping this since I tried searching for this today and couldn’t find it.

I’ve added this information to the page! Thank you for the bump.

(I also cleaned up the section on escaping magic characters.)
