something is broken in search

[yusef88]

in XYplorer 18.50.0011 this search doesn't seem to work:

Code: Select all

!>[أ-ي]

but it works in old version, XYplorer 15.80.0200

another question: why this pattern doesn't work?

Code: Select all

 !>[a-z]

There isn't a simple NOT for complex regex expressions so your pattern !>[a-z] is
interpreted in a different way. Use the help switch to find out how...

you mean in general or XYplorer in particular because Search Everything can ignore !>[a-z]

Code: Select all

regex:![a-z]

Different regex languages have different options / capabilities. As I said, use the help
switch to find out how XY interprets it...

sorry but The help doesn't explain why :
>[^\u0000-\u007F]+ can ignore Basic Latin characters but >[\u0000-\u007F]+ can't match them!
>[\u0980-\u09FF]+ can match Bengali characters but >[^\u0980-\u09FF]+ can't ignore them!

I didn't say anything about unicode, I was only referring to your NOT expression

But:

>[\u0000-\u007F]+ can't match them!

Sorry, but I can't reproduce this...

Can't say anything about Bengali stuff, not my language...

[yusef88]

does your folder contain only English names? because it matches everything here

Help Switch means you append /? to the search pattern. You will get something like this then:

Code: Select all

Query:  >[^\u0000-\u007F]+ /?
Parsed: RegEx[[^\u0000-\u007F]+]

Search: Quick Search
Mode: RegExp
FindBoolSmartDetect: Yes
ExtendedPatternMatching: No
MasterInvert: No
