Kodos 2.4.0 has been released and is available at: http://kodos.sourceforge.net Changes since 2.3.1: - The widget used for the "Group" tab has been changed to allow for the proper display of matches that span multiple lines. - Minor bug fixes About Kodos: Kodos is a regular expression designer, tester, debugger and validator that allows a developer to create and modify regular expressions against a test string. The intuitive grahpical interface allows the developer the ability to modify the regular expression (regex) and to see the effects against their test string in real-time. Key Features: - Matches can be easily viewed and each match can be seen distinctly - Visually perform search and replace operations on a string. - Regex groups and named groups are clearly displayed - Sample source code is shown so even python developers new to regular expressions can quickly add the produced regular expressions to their own projects. - Ability to load and save your test cases - Kodos relies on PyQt for the GUI elements. - Source (tgz, zip, srpm) and binary (rpm, exe) versions available. http://kodos.sourceforge.net
