Title: Re: Learning GREP - need help with one example

Here's my (hopefully) tweaked and corrected version:

FIND:

(https*://\S+/)(\S+?[^[:punct:]])(/?)(?:(?=[> \t])|(?=[[:punct:]]|$))

CHANGE TO:

Changes (in bold) include adding [^[:punct:]] at the end of the second capture, so that following punctuation is handled as intended. And I removed the \r, which should have been \n, even if it were there, from (?=[> \t]) , since the $ hnadles the instance, anyway.

That turns your original example (http://www.mysite.com/section/subsection/Z3245678a34/) into:

<a href="" href="" >">Z3245678a34</a">a</a>>

& is a capture for the whole original _expression_ -- not what you want.

I also see that my own suggestion was flawed. The [[:punct:]] part is not working right (on mine or yours) and needs reconsideration, but I'm in the middle of other stuff right now.

Also, the \r should be \n for BBEdit, but actually is not necessary at all, because the $ part takes care of it anyway.
