Subject: How to highlight the matching reqular expression strings
Date: Tue, 17 Mar 2009 09:59:27 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <49BF2727.5080300@cdotb.ernet.in> (raw)
Hi Bastien,
Thanks,
It worked for regexp like als.bd(any character).
It highlighted the matching strings.
But it did not work for als*bd(mutliple characters).
It did not highlight the matching strings.
How to do this?
Do
