Hi, I'm new on this list, just discovered the regex coach.. Nice work: I like really like it. I have 2 feature requests. 1/ When you are working in in multiline mode, would it be possible to see all the matches the same time, instead of one by one? 2/ Is it possible to show more than one selection, possibly in different colors. Kind regards, Huug Lamberts

[regex-coach] Re: Possible display bug report: The Regex Coach 0.6.7

Perhaps it's a language-related > bug? Hi Keith! Yes, that might be the case. Actually, it looks like a font problem to me, i.e. the program doesn't seem to be able to find the usual system font it needs. I'll see if I can make this user-configurable in one of the next releases. For now I'm sorry to say that you probably have to run Regex Coach with a US or Western European version of Windows. Cheers, Edi. PS: Please send bug reports to the mailing list.

Not yet. Just looked at it and it seems to be nice. You have to pay for it, though... :) > 2) I have a Regex Coach bug report, I think fairly serious... see > attached I don't know if this is "serious" because nobody has reported it yet but the new release 0.6.7 fixes this. I couldn't reproduce the crash you mentioned. If you could describe a reproducible way to crash the program that'd be very helpful. As for certain characters like the EUR symbol: I could fix this but they'd still be rendered as black boxes due to limitations in the CAPI toolkit I use. I don't think it's worth it. > file with description and screenshots. Thanks for the report. Please send further bug reports to the mailing list and don't send 12 MB of data the next time... :) Cheers, Edi.

Yes, this is not obvious from the docs... :) Type Ctrl-Q before you type the tab key and a tab character will be inserted. Ctrl-Q is used to insert the following character (whatever) literally into the text - this is a standard keybinding for Emacs but you probably don't know it if you're using other editors.

[regex-coach] Not working on Gentoo Linux
by Klavs Klavsen 25 Apr '04

25 Apr '04

Hi, I would like to try out regex-coach - but I'm running on a Gentoo system - where OpenMotif-2.2 is not available (only 2.1) - as it does not work with many proprietary binaries :( - see here: http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29388 Unfortunately your binary, I can't get yours to work when I have installed latest lesstif :( regex-coach binary says: write(1, "\nError: Motif version string (\"@"..., 56 Error: Motif version string ("@(#)Motif Version 2.1.30") = 56 write(1, ") indicates invalid library vers"..., 82) indicates invalid library version. Requires (("Lesstif" "2.1") ("Motif" "2.2"))) = 82 Unfortunately it does not seem to check for lesstif - which is available. I tried to mv the /usr/X11R6/lib/libXm.so.2 away to see if it would work but that gave me: Error: Motif version string ("@(#)GNU/LessTif Version 1.2 Release 0.93.94") indicates invalid library version. Requires (("Lesstif" "2.1") ("Motif" "2.2")). :( Should regex-coach not work with that? would it be possible to ask you to build your program with openmotif-2.1 - or do you really use features only in v2.2? I've heard great things about your program - looking forward to try it :) -- Regards, Klavs Klavsen, GSEC - kl(a)vsen.dk - http://www.vsen.dk PGP: 7E063C62/2873 188C 968E 600D D8F8 B8DA 3D3A 0B79 7E06 3C62 See my new managed CMS Hosting Service at http://www.VirkPaaNettet.dk "Those who do not understand Unix are condemned to reinvent it, poorly." --Henry Spencer

[regex-coach] possible regex coach bug
by leegold 19 Apr '04

19 Apr '04

Hi, I get the message: T is not of type #:FIX and then I click OK and the the programs ends. So regex coach appears to gracefully crash. I use Win2k. use: ^.{2}[a-z]{1,2}_?[0-9]*([1-6]|[a-f])[^1-9]{2}a+$ against: Axi_234b0Gaaa then out your cursor between the 0 and the G in the string. then press enter so that Gaaa will be on line below Axi_234b0 so you'll see: Axi_234b0 Gaaa then, check the s box. And I get the crash. I got the regex example from: http://jon.oxer.com.au/regex-cheat-sheet.php Thanks, Lee G.

Ah, that's interesting. I can reproduce it here (SuSE 9.0). Which version of the Regex Coach do you use? (See "Help" Menu.) > ps. regex-coach is great! Thanks... :) Cheers, Edi.

[regex-coach] Possessive Quantifier + Problem with the Regex Coach
by Seen Sai Yang 16 Apr '04

16 Apr '04

I tried an example from the Regex Tutorial (http://www.regular-expressions.com/atomic.html) with the following regex (at the bottom of the page): \d++6 gave an error "Quantifier '+' not allowed at position 3" The same regex worked in PowerGREP.
