It's pronounced "Rejular Expression" :)

I'm not sure RegEx is quite as bad as ya'll make it out to be. I agree that it's incredibly difficult to get right and test and should generally be avoided. But there may be a little bit of "it's bad because it's not familiar" creeping in.

Since switching to vim I use regex search much more often and I've found that has softened my stance on RegEx a bit. I still avoid them like the plague in code, but I'd say practice the basics so you have the most frequently useful cases in your tool belt when you need it.

Rejular Expression

Ahhh I see it now.

Nah, I don't think RegEx is the worst, it's definitely the right tool for the job sometimes, and it's like a lot of things: you can start by getting to know the basics and build on it from there. The fightin' one-eyed Kirby is great for find-and-replace in vim!
