Question

I need a regex that could select from the following text:

  string test hello world!
    bitmap player player.png
terrain(test)
bg(sky)
label(asdasd,sd, sd,ad,adsad, ds){sdds}
00:30 test(asda,asdad,adsd)asdad{asd}
    02:30 test(asda,asdad,adsd)asdad
00:40 test(asda,asdad,adsd)asdad

returns the following groups:

{
"string test hello world!",
"bitmap player player.png",
"terrain(test)",
"bg(sky)",
"label(asdasd,sd, sd,ad,adsad, ds){sdds}"
}

i’d like to use ..:.. for avoiding the time.

thanks a lot.

i tried

(?<!\b..:..\s).*

but didnt work.

Answer 1

use this (with multiline flag):

^(?!\s*[0-9]{2}\:[0-9]{2})\s*(?<captured>.+)$
