Subject: Need Regex Tutorial

Message-ID: <20051205024808.GW1806@johnsons-web.com> (raw)
My last postings have indicate to me that I need to roll up my sleeves
and learn regex from the ground up.
1)Info on my GNU emacs *does not* show anything about regular
expressions. Info on my XEmacs does and it is not sufficient for me.
I would appreciate pointers to online docs on regex, since
my emacs does appear not have them.
2)I'm an old dog, but I *can* learn new tricks if I have examples.
*lots* of examples, starting with the most basic. I can work from the
Fiedl book, but seeing some basic emacs examples will help me to
reconcile the differences between emacs regex (or as Friedl calls 'em -
'scattered toothpicks') and "classic" approaches
Pointers to examples welcome.
thanks
tim
