Re: Tab handling in newer betas (was: Odd characters with 1.63beta9)
Hi Matt, On Thursday, June 12, 2003 at 15:56:59 [GMT -0700], you wrote: X'Post2TBBETA Apologies in advance if this has been addressed. I was unable to find it in an archive search... I don't think it has. I just upgraded to 1.63 beta 9. I read and preview all of my e-mail in plain text. For some reason, since the upgrade, I'm now seeing a little square before some of the words in various e-mails. I'm wondering if there's a new setting in this upgrade that I didn't catch or something. I see this as well. It seems that the preview window handles tabs differently now. Looking at the source of an affected message (via F9) shows *no* characters where the squares are displayed in the preview window. But after exporting such a message into an mbox file, there were tabs where the squares had been in TB. So it seems that TB does no longer convert tabs in incoming mails into spaces but it doesn't display tabs properly either. Oh, by the way, any e-mails from a The Bat! user don't seem to have this problem. That's because Tabs in TB are automatically converted into spaces before sending, IIRC. -- Regards, Lars The Bat! 1.63 Beta/8 on Windows XP 5.1 Build 2600 http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html

Re: Regexp help - appending data
Hi Jon, On Wednesday, April 3, 2002 at 11:45:39 [GMT +0100], you wrote: JL That did the trick! JL Can I ask... JL [Questions snipped] OK, I'll try my first RegExp introduction. My knowledge about this topic is rather basic, but it'll be enough for that RegExp: Let's have a look at the RegExp: %SETPATTREGEXP=(?is)(^Name:(.*?)\nCity(.*?)\nProduct(.*?)\nAmount:?(.*?)\n).*%- %REGEXPBlindMATCH=%TEXT%- %Subpatt=2, %Subpatt=3, %Subpatt=4, %Subpatt=5 First of all, notice how it consists of three parts, which correspond to the three lines. The first part tells TB what pattern to look for (SETPATTernREGEXP). The second part tells TB to look for the previously specified pattern in the %TEXT. And the last part places the found subpatterns into your text file, separated by , . More on subpatterns will follow, when explaining the construction of the search pattern. The first two lines end with a newline (this may seem strange at first but there *is* a newline and it would be present in the output as well), which is not what we want, so we must suppress the newlines with %- at the end of the lines. Now, let's have a closer look at the RegExp pattern: (?is)(^Name:(.*?)\nCity(.*?)\nProduct(.*?)\nAmount:?(.*?)\n).* This pattern consists of two parts. The first part (between (? and )) sets the options for the RegExp. i means case-insensitive searches, s makes the . metacharacter match newlines, too (without it, the . wouldn't match newlines). This leads us to the next important thing, the meaning of the .. This character inside a RegExp matches any character except newline by default. This is the pattern we defined: (^Name:(.*?)\nCity(.*?)\nProduct(.*?)\nAmount:?(.*?)\n).* First thing we notice are the number of parentheses. Parentheses in a RegExp group things together as subpatterns (remember that word?). These subpatterns are enumerated with their opening parenthesis, starting from 1. We have these subpatterns (use the PTV to see the ^ markings at the correct place!): (^Name:(.*?)\nCity(.*?)\nProduct(.*?)\nAmount:?(.*?)\n).* ^ | | | | | | | | ^ subpattern 1 ^ ^ | | | | | | subpattern 2 ^ ^ | | | | subpattern 3 ^ ^ | | subpattern 4 ^ ^ subpattern 5 The subpatterns 2, 3, 4 and 5 match .*?, which stands for zero or more occurrences (*) of any character (.), but don't be greedy (?), so it matches only as much as really needed (it matches everything up to the next newline). So, the RegExp looks for Name: at the beginning of a line (that's the meaning of ^) followed by subpattern 2, the actual name of the customer. The other subpatterns are the same. Now, with all this in mind, we should be able to tweak the RegExp a little bit. First, we don't need the (?s) option, . never matches a newline in our RegExp. Second, we don't need subpattern 1, it is never used. And third, we add \s+ (stands for one or more (+) whitespace characters (\s)) between the field names and the subpatterns for the actual values. This way, we only get the needed values in the subpatterns, without leading tabs or spaces: %SETPATTREGEXP=(?i)^Name:\s+(.*?)\nCity:\s+(.*?)\nProduct:\s+(.*?)\nAmount\s+(.*?)\n%- %REGEXPBLINDMATCH=%TEXT%- %Subpatt=1, %Subpatt=2, %Subpatt=3, %Subpatt=4 This relies on your example given in the first post. You might have to add a : after the Amount, depending on the format your messages have (I guess it was a typo that you left out the colon in your example after Amount, you'd have to add it then if I'm right). I think one could even make the .* of the subpatterns greedy (leaving out the ?) because the . now wouldn't match a newline, so the subpattern would stop at the end of a line, but I didn't test it.

You could name your TB executable foo.exe, it would still find the language file, *but only* if the name is foo.lng (and bar.lng would _not_ work). You could also use betas and stable releases together in one installation, if you name the stable release, for example, TheBat_153t.exe, the corresponding language file TheBat_153t.lng and leave the betas as thebat.exe and thebat.lng.
