h1. Modifiers
.NET does not use a //modifier pattern, but AdiIRC tries to interpret it and removes them from the pattern.
/g /G - Enables global match.
/i /I - Enables case in-sensitive.
/S - Strips any control codes before matching.
/s - Enables single line match.
/m /M /c /C - Enables multi line match.
/x /X - Eliminates unescaped white space from the pattern.
/U - Enables non greedy mode. (Tries to replace greedy patterns with non greedy patterns + > +?, * -> *?)
h1. Differences between .NET and PRCE
AdiIRC translate some patterns from PRCE into .NET patterns.
<notextile>(*UTF8) -> Enables utf8 instead of ascii regular expression.</notextile>
//<modifiers> -> removed from the pattern.
<notextile>(?R) -> .*</notextile>
<notextile>(?2) -> .*</notextile>
<notextile>(?1) -> .*</notextile>
<notextile>++ -> +</notextile>
<notextile>[:alnum:] -> a-zA-Z0-9</notextile>
<notextile>[:alpha:] -> a-zA-Z</notextile>
<notextile>[:ascii:] -> \x00-\x7F</notextile>
<notextile>[:blank:] -> \s\t</notextile>
<notextile>[:cntrl:] -> \x00-\x1F\x7F</notextile>
<notextile>[:digit:] -> 0-9</notextile>
<notextile>[:graph:] -> \x21-\x7E</notextile>
<notextile>[:lower:] -> a-z</notextile>
<notextile>[:print:] -> \x20-\x7E</notextile>
<notextile>[:punct:] -> !"#$%&'()*+,\-./:;<=>?@[\\\]^_`{|}~</notextile>
<notextile>[:space:] -> \s\t\r\n\v\f</notextile>
<notextile>[:upper:] -> A-Z</notextile>
<notextile>[:word:] - > A-Za-z0-9_</notextile>
<notextile>[:xdigit:] -> A-Fa-f0-9</notextile>
<notextile>\cc -> \x003</notextile>
<notextile>\co -> \x00F</notextile>
<notextile>\cb -> \x002</notextile>
<notextile>\x\{([A-Fa-f0-9]{1,4})\} -> \uXXXX</notextile>
<notextile>\E \Q escapes all characters in between</notextile>
\K is not available in .NET, use (<=abc)d instead.
These are not available and have no .NET counterpart:
code (?{…})
recursive (R), (R1), (R&name), (?R)
define (DEFINE).
