On: A functioning Turing Machine using Notepad++ and its find/replace regex engine

[metalliqaz]

I just don't count those cases as 'basic' syntax.

[pstoll → metalliqaz]

Basic - naming a capture group. Awk / posix - \1 Perl - $1. Python - (?P<name>).

I’d find it hard to ignore the specifics. I mean if you only ever use one tool and were never exposed to other regex engines I guess.
