Hi, this mailing list is about pcre library development, not general regular expression questions. Reddit is the right place for those tricky questions:
https://www.reddit.com/r/regex/ I try to answer your question though. Since the number of "string" tags are unknown, I would convert this in multiple steps. - First, I would convert the initial tag, which looks like "string" + s/((?:^|[^+ ]) *)("[^"]++") *\+/$1CONCAT($2,+/g - Second, I would convert the +"string"+ parts s/\+ *("[^"]++") *(?=\+)/, $1/g - Third, convert the terminator +"strings" with a similar pattern. Of course depending on the input you could create more complex patterns to fit your needs.
