Chapter 1. Introduction

The regular expression editor is an editor for editing regular expression in a graphical style (in contrast to the ascii syntax). Traditionally regular expressions have been typed in the ascii syntax, which for example looks like ^.*kde\b. The major drawback of this style is:

The regular expression editor, on the other hand, lets you draw your regular expression in an unambiguous way. The editor solves at least item two and three above. It might not make regular expressions available for the non-programmers, though only tests by users can tell that. So, are you a non programmer, which have gained the power of regular expression from this editor, then please let me know.
