I know what you did. You wrote some sloppy code in the command line to test a long string pattern didn’t you?
Not anymore! This plugin lets you quickly test your string patterns on any text.
The plugin will highlight all possible matches, although in code you will only receive the first match.
%u%l+ : hello. I am actually Avocado!
Each highlight uses alternating colors to help you differentiate the different matches.
%d+ : aa 11 ee 22 jj 33 aa 44
That’s all! This plugin took me 4 days to make, and I started it right after I needed it. RegExplorer is still broken, so I couldn’t use that! RegExplorer and Regex101 were the inspirations behind this plugin.
This plugin is created by my developer account, @avodey.
Please report any bugs! Bugs that I have fixed (mulitple times…) maybe involve issues with updating, highlight misalignment, and bad performance. If these bugs come back, DM me with the pattern and sample text that caused the issue.
I guess you don’t need to fix it anymore! I had fun making this plugin because it’s the first time I used @Elttob’s Fusion system. It has proven to be very useful!
Oops. I guess you could use Fusion! Although, I believe my take on a string pattern tester is more complicated… it mimics Roblox’s text rendering system so I could put a background on individual characters. Other people on the forum faced this problem and couldn’t solve it, so I couldn’t get help on making it. I used AI to fix my text kerning calculations, I’m not a font expert! Rich Text was always an option, but I wanted it to look good like on Regex101!
Sorry about that. I’m not really planning on maintaining it anymore, I guess I’ll stop referring it on my topic
