Comments on: miscellaneous search/replace regular expressions I’ve used recently in TextPad http://www.spugbrap.com/blog/2005/06/miscellaneous-searchreplace-regular-expressions-ive-used-recently-in-textpad/ This is a repository for my favorite scripts, regexes, commandlines, utilities, code snippets, tips, and other geeky things that might be useful to someone googling for an obscure solution some day. It's also a place to share my thoughts about companies I've dealt with, my favorite lifehacks, observations of interesting human behavior, clever and/or evil marketing schemes I've run across, and anything else I feel compelled to write about.

Why deal with Unix when you can have the tools run under windows? (NOTE: I'll probably feel differently in 10 years because windows is going downhill!) 2) I know the feeling of "run this one repeatedly until no more matches", hehe. It's kinda fun. 3) What a messed up search-and-replace. So you have to do "string".method, as if the static string is an object with a method? I understand that that's how it may actually work underneath the hood, but that's counterintuitive. I'd rather do it the original way you had it :) 1) You gotta love cygwin.
