Using RegEx in SciTE4AutoHotkey's search -> keydelay|keypress does not work

22 May 2016, 12:51

Hi there,
I want to use RegEx in SciTE4AutoHotkey to search something, but cannot figure out how to do it correctly. I want to use | to mark alternatives, but it takes the | literal and finds nothing:

Code: Select all

keydelay|keypress
Btw of course the regex option is activated.
Please help!

Greetings Leli196

SciTE doesn't use PCRE (the regex engine used by AutoHotkey) and has somewhat limited regex capabilities. I don't think it supports anything other than what is documented:
