Greetings,
I am new to this mailing list & tool & have to see
that it definitely has potential to be a very helpful tool / coach.
In going through some basic examples, I have observed the
following issue:
For...
Regular Expression:
a+
Target String:
Mary had a little lamb.
And everywhere that Mary
went, the lamb
was sure
to go.
... and while 'g'
checkbox is checked, only the first 'a' character is highlighted
yellow in the 'Target String' box. It would be nice & consistent with
the 'Match from 1 to 2', 'Replace' tab for all the 'a'
characters to highlight whilst the 'g' (replace globally) checkbox
is checked. My thoughts are that
the 'g' checkbox should be a global setting that will affect the 'Replace'
tab & 'Split' tab.
That is, if the 'g' is unchecked, then only the first match
is replaced and split (and highlighted, my main concern) consistently, but if
checked, then all matches would be hit.
FYI - I'd like to share my first success, an
expression that can be used to partially hide credit card numbers transmission
in clear text over the net (like for order / invoice confirmations etc...):
([^{1}])([0-9]{10})
or [^{1}][0-9]{10}
Anyhow, thanks in advance & I look forward to feedback
