Where is the regular expression syntax that is used by Xcode's find
documented?
My immediate task is to convert some dates in HTML files from
inside-out to ISO format
i.e. from 07/06/2006 to 2006-07-01
and have tried things like
\(:d:d\)\/\(:d:d\)\/\(:d:d:d:d\)
and
\([0-9][0-9]\)\/\([0-9][0-9]\)\/\([0-9][0-9][0-9][0-9]\)
for the search specification
with
\3-\1-\2
and
$3-$1-$2
and
$4-$3-$2
for the replace specification, but it apparently does not like
sub-matches bracketed with \( and \), and without sub-matches, I can't
use the sub-matched buffers in the replace.
I've tried using the google search with several variations to find the
documentation, and searched the list archives with no joy.
