💖 ERIC7_RE(1) — the eric7_re glow-up 💖

General Commands Manual · the one where your regexes get a whole GUI ✨

✨ NAME ✨

eric7_re — a GUI editor for Python style regular expressions 🦋

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

eric7_re [options]

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

okay so bestie, this manual page is the brief little rundown of the eric7_re command. and real talk — this page was written for the Debian distribution, because the original program simply does not ship a manual page of its own. so this is the ✨unofficial✨ origin story, basically.

eric7_re is a graphical editor and debugger for Python style regular expressions (it's using the Python re module, no cap). it has support for all of Python's own syntax extensions, like named groups — literally all of them. 👑

and here's the tea: this program is part of the eric7 IDE, but it can be used as a standalone application as well. so you can absolutely just run it on its own, main character energy, no IDE required. 🫶

💖 OPTIONS 💖

these programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (-). a summary of options is included below — for a complete description, see the Info files.

  • -h, --help — show a summary of options. your lil "what do i do now" button 🥺
  • -v, --version — show the version of the program. gotta know which era of the vibe you're on 💀

👑 AUTHOR 👑

this manual page was written by Torsten Marek <shlomme@gmx.net>, for the Debian project (but may be used by others). absolute legend behavior, honestly 🎀

and that's the whole page, bestie!! this was the eric7_re manual, a General Commands Manual situation, dated January 31, 2010 — yeah it's giving vintage, but the regex knowledge is timeless 💖✨ mwah, go edit some regexes, ily 🫶
