I fail to see how this - really nice improvement - fixes my problem described in ZBXNEXT-8488. 

I tried using regrepl to remove the trailing slash from {#FSNAME} for Windows-VMs, but I failed. Please explain.
<sboidenko> Please try

{{#FSNAME}.regrepl("\\$", "")}

I tried that and it did not work.

First, I need to use single quotes for the arguments of regrepl, because this whole construct needs to be used as a user macro context in a trigger prototype, which already uses double quotes.

And exactly the pattern you suggested does not work, even though it should. I used the new tr-Funktion instead, and that somehow works, but does not produce the wanted result if the filesxstem is mounted on a directory instead of a drive letter

If I find the time, I will try again to see wether the problem is with matching the backslash or the $ anchor.

NPGerman, I've just tested it and it also works in a macro context of a trigger prototype. You need to escape double-quotes used for parameters inside the quoted context:

last(/Test/fsname.item[{#FSNAME}])>{$THRESHOLD:"{{#FSNAME}.regrepl(\"\\$\",\"\")}"}

Thank you, that works. Maybe you should document that specific use case, because quoting it that way is not completely intuitive.

NPGerman, thanks for the suggestion, please follow ZBX-25519.
