7 Any single character.[ ]Any one of the characters in the brackets, or any of a range of characters separated by a hyphen (-), or a character class operator (see below). [^] Any characters except for those after the caret "^". ^The start of a line (column 1). $The end of a line (not the line break characters).\<The start of a word. \>The end of a word. \tThe tab character. \fThe page break (form feed) character. \nA new line character, for matching expressions that span line boundaries. This cannot be followed by operators '*', '+' or {}. Do not use this for constraining matches to the end of a line. It's much more efficient to use "$".

8 \xdd"dd" is the two-digit hexadecimal code for any character. \( \) Groups a tagged expression to use in replacement expressions. An RE can have up to 9 such expressions.\|Matches either the expression to its left or its right. *Matches zero or more preceding zero or one preceding characters/expressions. +Matches one or more preceding characters/ expressions.{count} Matches the specified number of the preceding characters or expressions.{min,} Matches at least the specified number of the preceding characters or expressions.{min,max}Matches between min and max of the preceding characters or expressions.

9 \"Escapes" the special meaning of the above expressions, so that they can be matched as literal characters. [:alpha:]Any letter. [:lower:]Any lower case letter. [:upper:]Any upper case letter. [:alnum:]Any digit or letter. [:digit:]Any digit. [:xdigit:]Any hexadecimal digit (0-9, a-f or A-F). [:blank:]Space or tab. [:space:]Space, tab, vertical tab, return, line feed, form feed. [:cntrl:]Control characters (Delete and ASCII codes less than space). [:print:]Printable characters, including space. [:graph:]Printable characters, excluding space. [:punct:]Anything that is not a control or alphanumeric character.

10 [:word:]Letters, hypens and apostrophes. [:token:]Any of the characters defined on the Syntax page for the document class, or in the syntax definition file if syntax highlighting is enabled for the document class. Replacement Expressions&Substitute the text matching the entire search pattern. \0 to \9 Substitute the text matching tagged expression 0 through 9. \0 is equivalent to &. \fSubstitute a page break (form feed). \i<no> Substitute a sequence number. \n Substitute a newline. \p Substitute the contents of the clipboard. \t Substitute a tab. \xdd Substitute the character with hex code dd (must be 2 hex digits, excluding 00).
