| Description: | The Regex Coach is a graphical application for Windows which can be used to experiment with (Perl-compatible) regular expressions interactively. It has the following features: * It shows whether a regular expression matches a particular target string. * It can also show which parts of the target string correspond to captured register groups or to arbitrary parts of the regular expression. * It can "walk" through the target string one match at a time. * It can simulate Perl's split and s/// (substitution) operators. * It tries to describe the regular expression in plain English. * It can show a graphical representation of the regular expression's parse tree. * It can single-step through the matching process as performed by the regex engine. * Everything happens in "real time", i.e. as soon as you make a change somewhere in the application all other parts are instantly updated. |
