How to capture this?

I want to capture each 'name' returned in this format...
Katumi tells you '@Vooku: name1, name2, name3, name4, name5, name6, name7, name8,
name9,'
Might have a few lines of wrap-around text if that matters.
Thanks!

You'll use a regex pattern like this:
^Katumi tells you '@Vooku: (.+)'$
And you'll parse it into a table.
names = matches[2]:split(', ')

Thanks much! How do display or see the contents of this table? How do I then delete the contents?

The wiki has some good documentation on this:
