== About ==

''Regex Fun'' is a MediaWiki extension by Daniel Werner which adds parser functions for performing regular expression

searches and replacements.

The '#regex' parser function is inspired by 'RegexParserFunctions' extension from Jim R. Wilson and mostly compatible

with it. 'RegexParserFunctions' simply is outdated and lacks some advanced functionality provided by this extension.

''Regex Fun'' defines the following parser functions within your wiki:

 - #regex:        Search or replace with help of php preg regular expression. Returns first match in search mode.

                  Use of the 'e' modifier behind the expression will be detected, the effect of using 'e' now is

                  adapted for mediawiki. With 'e' the replacement string will be parsed after references are replaced.

 - #regexall:     Searches the whole string for as many matches as possible and returns them separated by a separator.

 - #regex_var:    Allows to access subexpression references of the last used 'regex' function.

 - #regexquote:   Runs php function 'preg_quote' on a string to use user-input savelly in regex functions. In case the

                  first character is a character with special meaning in MW, it will be replaced with its hexadecimal

                  notation e.g. '\x23' instead of '#'. This will prevent from things going terribly wrong when using

                  user input within a regular expression.
