Regular Expression Editor

Regular expressions allow you to create much more sophisticated patterns. The regular expressions used are identical to those found in the Microsoft .NET Framework and in Perl 5, with the exception that all whitespace in the expression will be ignored. If you want to match a literal space character, then escape it with a backslash.

For a full regular expression reference, please see the Microsoft .NET documentation.

The regular expression editor allows you to test your expressions; simply enter some example text and press return or press the Test button to test whether the expression will match the text or not.
