RegExplorer 1.0
RegExplorer is a simple utility for testing regular expressions and is based on the built-in QRegExp functionality provided with Qt (http://www.trolltech.com). more>>
Using RegExplorer, the user can type in his or hers favorite regular expression and the program will validate it and highlight matching patterns in a text sample. Previous expressions are stored and can be retrieved from the combobox and the number of matches found is shown in the status bar.
Key Features:
- Evaluate and validate the regular expression as you type.
- Matching patterns will be highlighted (colored blue) in text sample.
- Matching subexpressions (groups) will be underlined in text sample.
RegexSearch 2.8
Java application that allows you to perform graphical find-and-replace searches more>> Java application that allows you to perform graphical find-and-replace searches
RegexSearch is a Java application that will perform graphical find-and-replace and find searches for regular expressions on multiple text files.
Main features:
- It can search for literal text or regular expressions.
- The search can be performed on a single file, on a directory (with optional recursion), on the files and directories listed in a text file, or on the files in which the target was found in a previous search. Files can be included in and excluded from the search by means of pathname filters, which allow bounded recursion.
- Occurrences of the target expression within each file are displayed in a scrollable window, with the matched text highlighted.
- Occurrences of the target expression can be replaced individually or globally. If the target is a regular expression, the replacement can include arbitrary parts of the matched text.
- Replacements can be previewed, then accepted or rejected.
- The parsing and matching of regular expressions is performed by the robust Java regular-expression engine. The syntax of Javas regular expressions is similar to that of Perl and Python.
- The results of a search (number of matches, number of replacements) are displayed for each file in which a match is found. The results can be copied to the system clipboard in a form that is suitable for use as a list file to limit the scope of a new search.
- Although a file cannot be edited in RegexSearchs text view, a command can be issued to open the file in an external editor.
System requirements:
- Java 1.6 or later

RegexTester 1.0
RegexTester - validate one or more strings against a regular expression more>>
It is using the NSPredicate regular expression mechanism.
Usage
After launching RegexTester youll see two input fields.
The first one is for the regular expression you want to use for the validation.
The second fields is for the string you want to validate.
Entered values can be saved by clicking on the Save-Button. Saved values persist after you closed the application and can be erased by clicking Clear Regular Expressions and Clear Stings to Test respectively in the File-menu.
The validation process takes place every time you change either the regular expression or the string.
The traffic light indicators at the bottom of the application show you the current status of the validation. The left one shows you if the current selected string matches the selected regular expression.
The right indicator switches to green if all saved strings are matched by the selected regular expression.
