Subject: category codes and regexps
Date: Sun, 25 Jul 2004 22:59:27 +0200 (CEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20040725.225927.239650643.wl@gnu.org> (raw)


Assume that I want to check a buffer for characters which aren't Thai,
and which aren't in the range a-z.  My first idea was this:

  [^\cta-z]

This fails because `\' isn't special within [...].  What's the correct
(interactive) way to do that?  I tried hard without finding a regexp
which can handle this.
