RE: Witango-Talk: Auto a href
Yup, that's what I do, because perl regex is more of a standard, at least what I have found. The firewall I manage, has perl regex, I wanted to write a witango app to test the ones I do for the firewall and couldn't :-( Ben Johansen -Original Message- From: Anthony M.

Re: Witango-Talk: Auto a href
Witango uses a POSIX regex engine which is standards based while Perl
has its own standard for Regex and in its latest release does not even
call them regex any more but just plain old rules.
If a regex works with sed then it will work with witango as they use
the same library.
If you want to use regex in your apps get a hold of the book Mastering
Regular Expressions (If your an insomniac it is an excellent drug free
cure).

Think this came up once before. Worth a look through the archives.
The challenge is to find the string that represents an URL, which
begins
with http:// and ends with the first space after that.
Tricky.

Re: Witango-Talk: Auto a href
I found the expression below at
http://www.foad.org/~abigail/Perl/url3.regex
You can read the story of it at
http://www.foad.org/~abigail/Perl/url2.html.
I haven't tested it, because I think it's pathological enough to get
posted as is!
J.
Think this came up once before. Worth a look through the archives.
The challenge is to find the string that represents an URL, which
begins
with http:// and ends with the first space after that.
Tricky.

Re: Witango-Talk: Auto a href
Take a look at the Open source mail client Tunderbird... I bet theres some code in there that does a regex or something to find urls and you could probably steal the regex. I could be wrong and Thunderbird doesn't use anything like a regex and it would be impossible to figure out how that mail client takes plain text emails and turns URLS it finds into links for someone not familiar with the code. /John [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Anyone else tried this?
