Traditionally + regular expressions have been typed in the <acronym>ASCII</acronym> syntax, which for example + looks like <literal>^.*kde\b</literal>. The major drawbacks of + this style are: + <itemizedlist> + <listitem><para>It is hard to understand for + non-programmers.</para></listitem> + + <listitem><para>It requires that you <emphasis>escape</emphasis> + certain symbols (to match a star for example, you need to type + <literal>\*</literal>). </para></listitem> + + <listitem><para>It requires that you remember rules for + <emphasis>precedence</emphasis> (What does <literal>x|y*</literal> + match? a single <literal>x</literal> or a number of + <literal>y</literal>, <emphasis>OR</emphasis> a number of + <literal>x</literal> and <literal>y</literal>'s mixed?)</para></listitem> + </itemizedlist> + </para> + + <para> + The regular expression editor, on the other hand, lets you + <emphasis>draw</emphasis> your regular expression in an unambiguous + way. The editor solves at least item two and three above. It might not make + regular expressions available for the non-programmers, though only tests by + users can tell that. So, if are you a non programmer, who has gained the + power of regular expression from this editor, then please + <ulink url="mailto:blackie@kde.org">let me know</ulink>. + </para> + + </chapter> + + <!-- ====================================================================== --> + <!-- What is a Regular Expression --> + <!-- ====================================================================== --> + <chapter id="whatIsARegExp"> + <title>What is a Regular Expression</title> + + <para>A regular expression is a way to specify + <emphasis>conditions</emphasis> to be fulfilled for a situation + in mind. Normally when you search in a text editor you specify + the text to search for <emphasis>literally</emphasis>, using a + regular expression, on the other hand, you tell what a given + match would look like. Examples of this include <emphasis>I'm + searching for the word KDE, but only at the beginning of the + line</emphasis>, or <emphasis>I'm searching for the word + <literal>the</literal>, but it must stand on its own</emphasis>, + or <emphasis>I'm searching for files starting with the word + <literal>test</literal>, followed by a number of digits, for + example <literal>test12</literal>, <literal>test107</literal> + and <literal>test007</literal></emphasis></para> + + <para>You build regular expressions from smaller regular + expressions, just like you build large Lego toys from smaller + subparts. As in the Lego world, there are a number of basic + building blocks. In the following I will describe each of these + basic building blocks using a number of examples.</para> + + <example> + <title>Searching for normal text.</title> + <para>If you just want to search for a given text, a then regular + expression is definitely not a good choice. The reason for this is that + regular expressions assign special meaning to some characters. This + includes the following characters: <literal>.*|$</literal>. Thus if you want to + search for the text <literal>kde.</literal> (i.e. the characters + <literal>kde</literal> followed by a period), then you would need to + specify this as <literal>kde\.</literal><footnote><para>The regular + expression editor solves this problem by taking care of escape rules for + you.</para></footnote> Writing <literal>\.</literal> rather than just + <literal>.</literal> is called <emphasis>escaping</emphasis>. + </para> + </example> + + <example id="positionregexp"> + <title>Matching URLs</title> + <para>When you select something looking like a URL in KDE, then the + program <command>klipper</command> will offer to start + <command>konqueror</command> with the selected URL.</para> + + <para><command>Klipper</command> does this by matching the selection + against several different regular expressions, when one of the regular + expressions matches, the accommodating command will be offered.</para> + + <para>The regular expression for URLs says (among other things), that the + selection must start with the text <literal>http://</literal>. This is + described using regular expressions by prefixing the text + <literal>http://</literal> with a hat (the <literal>^</literal> + character).</para> + + <para>The above is an example of matching positions using regular + expressions. Similar, the position <emphasis>end-of-line</emphasis> can + be matched using the character <literal>$</literal> (i.e. a dollar + sign).</para> + </example> + + <example id="boundaryregexp"> + <title>Searching for the word <literal>the</literal>, but not + <emphasis>the</emphasis><literal>re</literal>, + <literal>brea</literal><emphasis>the</emphasis> or + <literal>ano</literal><emphasis>the</emphasis><literal>r</literal></title> + <para>Two extra position types can be matches in the above way, + namely <emphasis>the position at a word boundary</emphasis>, and + <emphasis>the position at a <emphasis>non</emphasis>-word + boundary</emphasis>. The positions are specified using the text + <literal>\b</literal> (for word-boundary) and <literal>\B</literal> (for + non-word boundary)<emphasis></emphasis></para> + + <para>Thus, searching for the word <literal>the</literal> can be done + using the regular expression <literal>\bthe\b</literal>. This specifies + that we are searching for <literal>the</literal> with no letters on each + side of it (i.e. with a word boundary on each side)</para> + + <para>The four position matching regular expressions are inserted in the + regular expression editor using <link linkend="positiontool">four + different positions tool</link></para> + </example> + + <example id="altnregexp"> + <title>Searching for either <literal>this</literal> or <literal>that</literal></title> + <para>Imagine that you want to run through your document searching for + either the word <literal>this</literal> or the word + <literal>that</literal>. With a normal search method you could do this in + two sweeps, the first time around, you would search for + <literal>this</literal>, and the second time around you would search for + <literal>that</literal>.</para> + + <para>Using regular expression searches you would search for both in the + same sweep. You do this by searching for + <literal>this|that</literal>. I.e. separating the two words with a + vertical bar.<footnote><para>Note on each side of the vertical bar is a + regular expression, so this feature is not only for searching for two + different pieces of text, but for searching for two different regular + expressions.</para></footnote></para> + + <para>In the regular expression editor you do not write the vertical bar + yourself, but instead select the <link linkend="altntool">alternative + tool</link>, and insert the smaller regular expressions above each other.</para> + </example> + + <example id="repeatregexp"> + <title>Matching anything</title> + <para>Regular expressions are often compared to wildcard matching in the + shell - that is the capability to specify a number of files using the + asterisk. You will most likely recognize wildcard matching from the + following examples: + <itemizedlist> + <listitem><para><literal>ls *.txt</literal> - here <literal>*.txt</literal> is + the shell wildcard matching every file ending with the + <literal>.txt</literal> extension.</para></listitem> + <listitem><para><literal>cat test??.res</literal> - matching every file starting with + <literal>test</literal> followed by two arbitrary characters, and finally + followed by the test <literal>.res</literal></para></listitem> + </itemizedlist> + </para> + + <para>In the shell the asterisk matches any character any number of + times. In other words, the asterisk matches <emphasis>anything</emphasis>. + This is written like <literal>.*</literal> with regular expression + syntax. The dot matches any single character, i.e. just + <emphasis>one</emphasis> character, and the asterisk, says that the + regular expression prior to it should be matched any number of + times. Together this says any single character any number of + times.</para> + + <para>This may seem overly complicated, but when you get the larger + picture you will see the power. Let me show you another basic regular + expression: <literal>a</literal>. The letter <literal>a</literal> on its + own is a regular expression that matches a single letter, namely the + letter <literal>a</literal>. If we combine this with the asterisk, + i.e. <literal>a*</literal>, then we have a regular expression matching + any number of a's.</para> + + <para>We can combine several regular expression after each + other, for example <literal>ba(na)*</literal>. + <footnote><para><literal>(na)*</literal> just says that what is inside + the parenthesis is repeated any number of times.</para></footnote> + Imagine you had typed this regular expression into the search field in a + text editor, then you would have found the following words (among + others): <literal>ba</literal>, <literal>bana</literal>, + <literal>banana</literal>, <literal>bananananananana</literal> + </para> + + <para>Given the information above, it hopefully isn't hard for you to write the + shell wildcard <literal>test??.res</literal> as a regular expression + Answer: <literal>test..\.res</literal>. The dot on its own is any + character. To match a single dot you must write + <literal>\.</literal><footnote><para>This is called escaping</para></footnote>. In + other word, the regular expression <literal>\.</literal> matches a dot, + while a dot on its own matches any character. </para> + + <para>In the regular expression editor, a repeated regular expression is + created using the <link linkend="repeattool">repeat tool</link> </para> + </example> + + <example id="lookaheadregexp"> + <title>Replacing <literal>&</literal> with + <literal>&amp;</literal> in a HTML document</title> <para>In + HTML the special character <literal>&</literal> must be + written as <literal>&amp;</literal> - this is similar to + escaping in regular expressions.</para> + + <para>Imagine that you have written an HTML document in a normal editor + (e.g. XEmacs or Kate), and you totally forgot about this rule.
