Hi, Anybody could show me a regex for capturing words (alphas, without numerics) in languages other than english (languages with special characters i.e. french, german)? I've tried '+' but the special letters for some language (i.e. french) are not captured. The '\w+' works fine, but it also include numerics, which I don't want. TIA

Anyone know of a fix (ideally) or an easy workaround to the problem of escape characters not working in regex replacement text? They just come out as literal text For example, you'd think that thi Regex.Replace("<stuff>text</stuff>", "<stuff>", "<stuff>\n" would give yo <stuff text</stuff

Hello, I am trying to include the literal '\' (backslash) character in a regex. I am not sure if I need to escape it, however... From http://www.regular-expressions.info/charclass.html: "To include a backslash as a character without any special meaning inside a character class, you have to escape it with another backslash. matches a backslash or an x."

Hi there, I'm seeking opinions on the use of regular expression searching. Is there general consensus on whether it's now a best practice to rely on this rather than rolling your own (string) pattern search functions. Where performance is an issue you can alway write your own specialized routine of course. However, for the occasional pattern search where performance isn't an issue, would most seasoned .NET developers rely on "Regex" and...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
