It really isn't that difficult for a programmer to learn how regexps work and construct your own rather than relying on fragile tools.

- henrikschroder 16y agoAgree, I wouldn't use that or any other tool to construct regexps, but I am using http://www.regexbuddy.com/ http://www.regexbuddy.com/ to test, debug, and refine the ones I've made.
- npongratz 16y agoI use http://gskinner.com/RegExr/ http://gskinner.com/RegExr/ for similar reasons; it's free (doesn't even have ads), though not as powerful as RegexBuddy. Allows for a very quick test-debug-refine cycle, making clear what is matched with realtime highlighting. I'm not affiliated in any way, just very happy with the service.
