I cant get this to work.
I’m trying to match A and B from [A](B), but it should only do the matching if it doesn’t start with !.

I’ve this so far.
/\[([^\]]+)]\(([^)]+)\)/

It matches A and B, but If I add [^\!] it wont match anything.

/[^\!]\[([^\]]+)]\(([^)]+)\)/

The value ![A](B) can be anywhere in a larger string.

Any ideas why this isn’t working?

    This works for me in TextPad (it’s all I have for regex at the moment. you’ll probably have to modify the escaping):

    \(^\|[^\!]\)\[[^]]+\]([^)]+)
    

    The \(^\|[^\!]\) matches either the beginning of the line or a character other than !.
