To experiment with (Perl-compatible) regular expressions interactively. Freeware
Edit by : 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 Perls split and s/// (substitution) operators.
- It tries to describe the regular expression in plain English.
- It can show a graphical representation of the regular expressions 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.
