Jack,

I think you want - but make sure case sensitive is turned on...

^(.*?)(?=[A-Z]{1}[a-z]{1})

Matches from start of line, zero or more characters until you get a positive lookahead for a member of A-Z followed by a member of a-z...

I have a file filled with lines of text. I need a grep pattern which will match from the start of the line, to the first uppercase letter which is followed by a lowercase letter.

I used to have this pattern stored in my grep patterns, but upgrading to a later version of bbedit seems to have deleted these.

Help.

Thanks in advance.
