Rex 1.0

Rex is a graphical javascript Regular Expression editor. It’s something I’ve had sitting around for a couple years and really helped me with data mining projects consisting of a big messy text documents. So i figured I’d post it in hopes it’ll be just as useful to others as it was for me.

I liken it to a graphical, javascript version of sed or awk.

[ Launch rex 1.0 ]

Rex is released under GNU GPL. If you would like to download rex simply "View the Source" of the rex page and copy and paste. Also prototype.js is required.

TODO:

  • add an ‘e’ (expression) flag so custom javascript can be executed on every match.
  • add a ‘z’ flag to continue to apply the pattern until zero matches.
