RegURL is an extension which applies a regular expression on the URL.

A regular expression is a string that is used to describe or match a set of strings, according to certain syntax rules. For example, the regular expression bex can be used to describe (and search for) all of the instances of the string "ex" that occur at word breaks (signified by the b).

Thus in the phrase, "Texts for expert experimenters," the regular expresssion bex returns the "ex" in "expert" and "experimenters," but not in "Texts" (because the "ex" occurs inside the word there and not at the word break).

Regular expressions are used by many text editors and utilities to search and manipulate bodies of text based on certain patterns. Many programming languages support regular expressions for string manipulation.

For example, Perl and Tcl have a powerful regular expression engine built directly into their syntax. The set of utilities (including the editor ed and the filter grep) provided by Unix distributions were the first to popularize the concept of regular expressions.

"Regular expression" is often shortened in speech to regex, and in writing to regexp or regex (singular) or regexps, regexes, or regexen (plural).

Regular Statement String (RSS) provides several libraries in C, Java, and COM to implement and demonstrate the key-value development method using well-designed "strings" (RSS) as the media. Regular Statement String also shows a way to write "Process Oriented" applications.
Enhancements:
- This release adds an implementation for SUN Solaris (SPARC).

RegExplorer project is a regular Expression Explorer.

It allows for writing regular expressions and visually see the matches, thus making regular expression much easier to write and maintain.

NewsGrabber provides a Perl script to monitor several newsgroups for several regular expressions.
With NewsGrabber you can search newsgroups for subjects (regular expressions are allowed), monitor articles in newsgroups, or just fetch an article by message id.
It is configured by an XML file, and you can specify as many regular expressions per newsgroup as you like.
You can also add a number of news servers.
Enhancements:
- You can now generate simple statistics, print only the message id or the header instead of the whole found article, and write the articles to a file instead of stdout.
- There have been some minor bugfixes.

Guile is a Perl interface to the Guile Scheme interpreter.

SYNOPSIS

use Guile;

print "1 + 1 = ", Guile::eval_str("(+ 1 1)"), "n";

This module provides an interface to the Gnu Guile system. You can find out more about Guile at:

http://www.gnu.org/software/guile/guile.html.

Guile is an interpreter for the Scheme programming language. "Scheme is a statically scoped and properly tail-recursive dialect of the Lisp programming language invented by Guy Lewis Steele Jr. and Gerald Jay Sussman." You can find this quote in the language definition for Scheme here:

http://www-swiss.ai.mit.edu/~jaffer/r5rs_toc.html

This module is being developed in order to support the development and usage of an Inline::Guile module. The intention is to allow Perl programmers to intermix Perl and Guile code in their programs and modules.

Python Regular Expression Builder is a wxPython GUI to the re python module; it will speed up the development of Python regular expression (similar to PCRE).
The GUI is simple and features 3 parts:
- A text box where the text to be analyzed is displayed
- A text box where the regular expression to be applied is displayed
- A tree control where the results are displayed
When one of the two textboxes change the regex is compiled and applied. Errors in the regex are shown in a statusbar.
Pyreb ships with a simple XMLRPC server that can be used to control pyreb from an external application. It must be started using the
Tools/Start XMLRPC Server
menu item. The XMLRPC server understands 4 methods:
- Pyreb.setText(Txt)
- Pyreb.getText()
- Pyreb.setRegex(Txt)
- Pyreb.getRegex()
The first two get/set the text in the uppermost section; the last two get/set the regex in the medium section. Once the text/regex is set the match is recalculated and shown, as it would happen in interactive usage.
A sample session:
>>> import xmlrpclib
>>> a = xmlrpclib.ServerProxy("http://localhost:17787")
>>> a.system.listMethods()
[Pyreb.getRegex, Pyreb.getText, Pyreb.setRegex, Pyreb.setText, system.listMethods, system.methodHelp, system.methodSignature]
>>> a.Pyreb.setText("abc")
setText
>>> a.Pyreb.getText()
abc
>>> a.Pyreb.setRegex(a?(bc){1,})
setRegex
These commands set the text abc in the "Text to analyze" edit box, the regex in the "Regex to apply" edit box and recomputes the match, shown in the lower "Results" tree.

GPRename is a GUI batch file renamer based on Gtk-Perl.

GPRename can rename files numerically, insert/delete characters at/between specified position(s), replace strings (either using regular express or not), and change case.
