Summary: Support for named groups in regexs
Issue type: New Feature - A new feature of the product, which has yet to be developed.
Priority: Critical
Status: Closed
Assignee: drtrigon <dr.trigon@surfeu.ch>
From: drtrigon <dr.trigon@surfeu.ch>
Enable the usage of named groups '(?P<name>...)' in regex and combine them with '%(name)s' syntax.
Version: unspecified
Severity: critical

Named group can be used for <del>DRTRIGON-110</del> also.
Named groups can further be used in 'regex', coupled to 'value' (like multiple BS tags on 1 page) and could become a complete revolution. May be this gives a new mode again and remove completely the need of some postproc usages... Has a lot of potential!!!
From: drtrigon <dr.trigon@surfeu.ch>
Mainly in 'postproc' regex, but later also in 'regex' (or else)...
From: drtrigon <dr.trigon@surfeu.ch>
Look also at 'replacetext' using 'sub' and thus supporting named groups like:
('replacetext', '(?P<url>http://(ur1.ca\x7Cbit.ly)\S*)', '\x3Cnowiki\x3E\g<url>\x3C/nowiki\x3E')From: drtrigon <dr.trigon@surfeu.ch>
Implemented in r341.

New postproc are written and will be enabled too.
