Two things to keep in mind:
1. Once %/regex/ has skipped something, there is no way back. Thus if you have
multiple of those in one protocol, the order must stay fixed.
2. Any unread line after the one used will cause an error unless you set
ExtraInput=ignore in this protocol. (Normally I discourage people to use that.)
