[REBOL] Off-topic: regular expressions Re:
From: bobr:dprc at: 23-Sep-2000 12:11
if it is a perl based regular expression to extract a URL
that you want, I have a line from Kehei.com wiki.pl (the non rebol one)
that will find a URL either at beginning of a line, after a space or
after a * or - . It also stops the parse at a space or a tag (<) start.
# Handle embedded URLs
s@(^|[\-\*\s])((news|http|ftp|gopher|https)\://([^\s<]+))@$1\<A
href\=\"$2" target=\"_top\"\>$2<\/A\>@go;
note that @ was used as a delimiter since nearly every other
punctuation char was used already in the innards.
s/match/repl/go; is
[s--match]@[repl--go];
