Is there any code generator available for RegExReplace and RegExMatch in AutoHotKey?

16 Mar 2019, 14:19

As, using Regular Expressions in ahk is quite complicated, so i am looking for any code generator for simplifying the use of regexmatch and regexreplace. I tried to use this tool for regular expressions-
https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=10157&p=64010&hilit=regular+expression+tool#p64010

but it does not generate codes while we can only check/test our regular expression codes in better way by this tool. I also tried to use this site - https://regex101.com/r/1nWjUL/1
but this is also a regular expression testing tool.

Is there no such kind of tool available, by the help of which tool we can generate regular expression codes?

Please help. Thanks.

just out of curiosity

automatic RegExp code generator ? sounds good though
have you ever seen any one before ?
in my case, negative

and, testing is good enough, I guess
after testing your pattern, you just wrote simple one or two variables (or copy/paste it).

If there is some RegEX code generator in other language(such as python perl c#),basically it can also be used for AHK. :lol:

Thanks IMEime..

I've not seen any regex code generator, but i think there should be such kind of thing.

hello dear magusneo..

I don't know whether there is any regex code generator available for other languages or not... If you know then please provide me link/url for that. Thanks...

How would that work? How would it know what you wanted when you aren't even sure yourself, not in a detailed way - because it's hard?

Computer ... Computer ........ ahh, Hello computer
Just use the keyboard
Keyboard :eh: , how quaint :problem:

Computer please display the chemical formula for transparent aluminium and then find the stuff I need from this block of text, tah.
...
Great, good job, thanks for that.
If only they could.

Related: For getting acquainted with Regex, there's some paid programs in other languages that offer something. But there is a rather venerable AHK script looking for development & TLC: Tidbit's FindMe.
Just a standard looking file search dialog when run, but it's the popup help from the little question mark button that has the best potential for expansion into some command line based helper.
