Description
Disables natural bus naming.
You may choose to disable natural bus naming to string match patterns such as "in\[024\]". In this
example, you are string matching the names "in0", "in2", and "in4".
Note that if you disable natural bus naming, then square brackets must be escaped twice (\\\[ or \\\]) so
that the strings are interpreted as bus names during a string match, such as:
set bus_name "address\[0\]" string match [escape_brackets $bus_name]
$bus_name
The "escape_brackets" command escapes "address\[0\]" into "address\\\[0\\\]".
To enable natural bus naming again, type "enable_natural_bus_naming".
For more information about natural bus naming, type "enable_natural_bus_naming -h".
