Reggy 1.3 Is Out, Get It!

I pushed out a new version of Reggy this morning.

Release Notes:

  • added preference to apply sub-match/capture group coloring: each match or capture group gets a slightly different shade of color — especially nice for nesting matches
  • added preference to automatically use the clipboard contents on startup for the regular expression and/or the testing string
  • added menu items to paste the clipboard directly into either the regular expression (Command+Shift+V) or the testing string (Command+Option+V)
  • added a new and improved Reggy icon (Leopard Compatible/Resolution Independent)
  • added help link for regular expression syntax preference (goes to wikipedia)
  • updated regular expression engine
  • simplified preferences window

Thanks should go to Steve Huff at the Harvard-MIT Data Center for requesting the startup clipboard preferences. It was a great idea that, along with the menu items to quickly paste into the fields, many people will be happy to see.

So anyways, Leopard’s icon size is big, and I mean big:

Reggy Leopard Icon

I had to redraw the icon this morning because the clipping icon I was using was swiped from Tiger. I figured it would probably be proper of me to not steal the clipping icon.

I am really excited to get onto developing a Leopard-only 2.0 version. I am starting to read through the new documentation now. Let me just say thank you to Apple for making developing stuff like Reggy fun and easy.

Reggy v1.2 Is Ready for You

Are you ready for it?

So, now we have an appcast for you to follow on the new Reggy website. Did some last minute tweaks to make me happy and now it is up on the servers, so go get it!

What changed?

  • added user preferences
    • matched string highlight color
    • regular expression options
    • regular expression syntax
    • check for automatic updates
  • added automatic updates using the Sparkle framework

I hope you like the update. As always, feel free to file bug reports and feature requests on the issue tracker.

I plan on posting a bit of what I see for the future of Reggy soon for those who may be interested.
