regsub(n)                                   Tcl Built-In Commands                                  regsub(n)

NAME
       regsub - Perform substitutions based on regular expression pattern matching

SYNOPSIS
       regsub ?switches? exp string subSpec ?varName?
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

DESCRIPTION
       This command matches the regular expression exp against string, and either copies string to the vari-able variable
       able whose name is given by varName or returns string if varName is not present.  (Regular expression
       matching  is  described  in  the  re_syntax reference page.)  If there is a match, then while copying
       string to varName (or to the result of this command if varName is not present) the portion of  string
       that matched exp is replaced with subSpec.  If subSpec contains a "&" or "\0", then it is replaced in
       the substitution with the portion of string that matched exp.  If subSpec contains a "\n", where n is
       a  digit  between  1  and  9, then it is replaced in the substitution with the portion of string that
       matched the n'th parenthesized subexpression of exp.  Additional backslashes may be used  in  subSpec
       to prevent special interpretation of "&", "\0", "\n" and backslashes.  The use of backslashes in sub-Spec subSpec
       Spec tends to interact badly with the Tcl parser's use of backslashes, so it is generally  safest  to
       enclose subSpec in braces if it includes backslashes.

       If  the  initial  arguments  to regsub start with - then they are treated as switches.  The following
       switches are currently supported:

       -all      All ranges in string that match exp are found and substitution is  performed  for  each  of
                 these  ranges.  Without this switch only the first matching range is found and substituted.
                 If -all is specified, then "&" and "\n" sequences are handled for each  substitution  using
                 the information from the corresponding match.

       -expanded      Enables  use  of  the expanded regular expression syntax where whitespace and comments
                      are ignored.  This is the same as specifying the (?x) embedded option (see the re_syn-tax re_syntax
                      tax manual page).

       -line          Enables  newline-sensitive  matching.   By  default,  newline is a completely ordinary
                      character with no special meaning.  With this flag, "[^" bracket expressions  and  "."
                      never  match newline, "^" matches an empty string after any newline in addition to its
                      normal function, and "$" matches an empty string before any newline in addition to its
                      normal  function.   This  flag is equivalent to specifying both -linestop and -linean-chor, -lineanchor,
                      chor, or the (?n) embedded option (see the re_syntax manual page).

       -linestop      Changes the behavior of "[^" bracket expressions and "."  so that they  stop  at  new-lines. newlines.
                      lines.   This  is  the  same as specifying the (?p) embedded option (see the re_syntax
                      manual page).

       -lineanchor    Changes the behavior of "^" and "$" (the "anchors") so they match  the  beginning  and
                      end  of  a line respectively.  This is the same as specifying the (?w) embedded option
                      (see the re_syntax manual page).

       -nocase   Upper-case characters in string will be converted to  lower-case  before  matching  against
                 exp;   however,  substitutions  specified  by  subSpec use the original unconverted form of
                 string.

       -start index
                 Specifies a character index offset into the string to start matching the regular expression
                 at.   The  index  value  is  interpreted in the same manner as the index argument to string |
                 index.  When using this switch, "^" will not match the beginning of the line, and  \A  will
                 still  match  the start of the string at index.  index will be constrained to the bounds of
                 the input string.

       --        Marks the end of switches.  The argument following this one will be treated as exp even  if
                 it starts with a -.

       If  varName is supplied, the command returns a count of the number of matching ranges that were found
       and replaced, otherwise the string after replacement is returned.  See the manual  entry  for  regexp
       for details on the interpretation of regular expressions.

EXAMPLES
       Replace (in the string in variable string) every instance of foo which is a word by itself with bar:
              regsub -all {\mfoo\M} $string bar string
       or (using the "basic regular expression" syntax):
              regsub -all {(?b)\<foo\>} $string bar string

       Insert double-quotes around the first instance of the word interesting, however it is capitalized.
              regsub -nocase {\yinteresting\y} $string {"&"} string

       Convert  all  non-ASCII  and  Tcl-significant characters into \u escape sequences by using regsub and
       subst in combination:
              # This RE is just a character class for everything "bad"
              set RE {[][{};#\\\$\s\u0080-\uffff]}

              # We will substitute with a fragment of Tcl script in brackets
              set substitution {[format \\\\u%04x [scan "\\&" %c]]}

              # Now we apply the substitution to get a subst-string that
              # will perform the computational parts of the conversion.
              set quoted [subst [regsub -all $RE $string $substitution]]
