I am trying to convert strings: (A XXX)(B YYY)(C ZZZ) etc. to XXXYYYZZZ etc. This works in sed: echo "(A XXX)(B YYY)(C ZZZ)" | \ sed -n ' { s/([A-Z]* \([A-Z]*\))/\1/g p } ' but when I put it into rereplace, like: <cfset construct[LoopCount] = rereplace(#construct[LoopCount]#, "[A-Z]*", "\([A-Z]*\))/\1/gp", "all")> I am getting: \([A-Z]*\))//gp(\([A-Z]*\))//gp \([A-Z]*\))//gp)\([A-Z]*\))//gp(\([A-Z]*\))//gp \([A-Z]*\))//gp)\([A-Z]*\))//gp(\( etc. so I am doing something really wrong. Please help. TNX.
