SlickEdit Regular Expression Definition
Regular Expressions .
\x
hh
Matches hexadecimal character
hh
where
0<=
hh
<=0xff .
\
ddd
Matches decimal character
ddd
where
0<=
ddd
<=255 .
\g
d
Defines a back reference to tagged expression
number
d
. For example, {abc}def\g0 matches the
string abcdefabc . If the tagged expression has not
been set, the search fails.
\c Specifies cursor position if match is found. If the ex-
pression
xyz\c is found, the cursor is placed after
the z .
\n Matches newline character sequence. Useful for
matching multi-line search strings. What this
matches depends on whether the buffer is a DOS
(ASCII 13,10 or just ASCII 10), UNIX (ASCII 10),
Macintosh (ASCII 13), or user-defined ASCII file.
Use
\d10 if you want to match an ASCII 10 charac-
ter.
\r Matches carriage return.
\t Matches tab character.
\b Matches backspace character.
\f Matches form feed character.
\od Matches any 2-byte DBCS character. This escape
is only valid in a match set (
[...\od...] ). [^\od]
matches any single byte character excluding end-
of-line characters. When used to search Unicode
text, this escape does nothing.
\om Turns on multi-line matching. This enhances the
match character set, or match any character primit-
ives to support matching end-of-line characters. For
example,
\om?# matches the rest of the buffer.
Note : Test the regular expression on a very small
file before using it on a large file. This option may
cause the editor to use a lot of memory.
