Introduction to regex – By William Smith, Jamf
Regex, like chess, is easy to learn but can take a lifetime to master. It’s a handy way to identify “something” when you don’t necessarily know what that “something” is (think of wildcards). Mac admins have a lot of existing tools that support regex like BBEdit, Jamf Pro, and most any command-line shell. Let’s look at uses for regexes, the basics of how to create them, and where we can use them.
This presentation will cover the uses for regexes (regexen?), the basics of how to create them, and where we can use them.
