Hi.
How do I write a pattern to match a string that must contain 1 or more
tabs and may also contain 1 or more spaces --- in any order.
These would match:
tab
tab tab
tab space tab
space tab tab
tab space tab space
but a string of just 1 or more spaces would not match.
Thanks!
Ken
Hello Ken!
Try with this:
^(\t|\t\t|\t \t| \t\t|\t \t )$
Are these spaces alone in one line? If not remove ^ and $

Thanks, Marek. With ^ and $ I get zero matches. Without them, I
only match pairs of tab space, in that order. It fails to find
space tab. And not at all for longer strings with multiple tabs
and spaces.
Hmmm.
