In addition, you can preview the changes before they are made.</figcaption></figure> <dl><dt>RegExpr <span id="RegExpr"></span> <b>/R/</b></dt></dl> <p>A RegExpr also known as regular expression or regex is a pattern used to match more than one "string" (e.g. the image text or a title). They can be really helpful anywhere, so, if you are unexperienced don't be lazy and learn them; the earlier, the better. </p><p>In the cute selection dialog, insert the RegExpr without flags <small>(they are currently not supported)</small> (<code>Test.*</code>); however when performing a custom replace, insert the RegExpr with flags (<code>/\{\{FlickrView.*\|\d{4}\}\}/ig</code>). Don't forget to escape "special characters". </p><p>Please test your RegExpr before using and use the opportunity to examine the changes the current set of replacement rules would cause to avoid undesired replacements. You can use <a rel="nofollow" class="external free" href="https://regex101.com/">https://regex101.com/</a> (or similar tools) to test your RegExpr. </p><p>When using regular expressions, VFC follows the same convention as Perl, PHP, and others that in the replacement string, <code>$0</code> matches the whole matched string, <code><code>/[|]\s*[Ss]ource\s*=\s*([^|}]*) on MyCoolWebsite/</code></code> matches the first parenthesized expression, <code><code>| Source = {{MyCoolWebsite|$1}}</code></code> the second parenthesized expression, etc. So, for example, the regular expression <code>/[|]\s*[Ss]ource\s*=\s*([^|}]*) on MyCoolWebsite/</code> with a replacement string <code>| Source = {{MyCoolWebsite|$1}}</code> would turn <code>|source=FOO.BAR on MyCoolWebsite</nowiki></code> into <code>| Source = {{MyCoolWebsite|FOO.BAR}}</code>. </p><p>Reference/ Examples: <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://de.selfhtml.org/javascript/objekte/regexp.htm">de</a>, <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/jsref_obj_regexp.asp">en</a>, <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="http://www.javascriptkit.com/jsref/regexp.shtml">en</a> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Range_selection_–_Multiple_files_between_two_files" data-mw-thread-id="h-Range_selection_–_Multiple_files_between_two_files-Step_4:_Select_items_to_perform_the_action_on"><span id="Range_selection_.E2.80.93_Multiple_files_between_two_files"></span><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Range_selection_–_Multiple_files_between_two_files-Step_4:_Select_items_to_perform_the_action_on"></span>Range selection – Multiple files between two files<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Range_selection_–_Multiple_files_between_two_files-Step_4:_Select_items_to_perform_the_action_on"></span></h4></div> <p>Select <i>file A</i>, hold down <kbd class="keyboard-key nowrap" style="border:1px solid #aaa;border-radius:.2em;-moz-box-shadow:.1em .1em .2em rgba(0,0,0,.1);-webkit-box-shadow:.1em .1em .2em rgba(0,0,0,.1);box-shadow:.1em .1em .2em rgba(0,0,0,.1);background:#f9f9f9;background-image:-moz-linear-gradient(top,#eee,#f9f9f9,#eee);background-image:-o-linear-gradient(top,#eee,#f9f9f9,#eee);background-image:-webkit-linear-gradient(top,#eee,#f9f9f9,#eee);background-image:linear-gradient(to bottom,#eee,#f9f9f9,#eee);padding:.1em .3em;font-family:inherit;font-size:.85em"><span class="Unicode">⇧</span> Shift</kbd> while selecting <i>file B</i>.
