Patterns

Note: Now requires OS X 10.7 or later

• The major v1.2 update brings lots of useful new regex features, Dark Mode support for Mojave, and much more.
• The new Matches view lets you inspect all matches and captured text produced by your regex, alongside your search text. Clicking on a match or group highlights both the matched search text and the specific portion of your regex that produced the match or capture.
• The new Filter mode lets you filter the search text by lines that either match or don't match your regex.
• The regex engine can now be customised for different regex "flavors". Supported flavors are: Oniguruma, POSIX Basic (BRE), POSIX Extended (ERE), Perl (PCRE), emacs, Java, Ruby, bash, grep, and sed.
• New Copy Code modes: grep, sed, Swift, and Escaped Pattern.
• Ability to navigate through all matches using the new navigation buttons and keyboard shortcuts (Command-G and Command-Shift-G).
• Automatic detection and removal of extra backslash-escapes when pasting a regex from an external source.
• The replacement mode now highlights replaced text in the same style as in the search text.
• User interface improvements, performance enhancements for large files, improved regex syntax highlighting with more colors, bugfixes, and more.
