Issue with the Regular pattern match

Hi Bartus .

Thanks for the Reply
But I want to match the Regular expression RXE and on the basis of the match it should insert the newline but selective matching should be there on the basis on conditions

Matching the RXE and inserting newline to after matching with the pins having RXE

Thanks
Jaita

regsub(n)						       Tcl Built-In Commands							 regsub(n)

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

NAME
regsub - Perform substitutions based on regular expression pattern matching SYNOPSIS
regsub ?switches? exp string subSpec ?varName? | _________________________________________________________________ DESCRIPTION
This command matches the regular expression exp against string, and either copies string to the variable whose name is given by varName or | returns string if varName is not present. (Regular expression matching is described in the re_syntax reference page.) If there is a match, then while copying string to varName (or to the result of this command if varName is not present) the portion of string that matched | exp is replaced with subSpec. If subSpec contains a ``&'' or ``'', then it is replaced in the substitution with the portion of string that matched exp. If subSpec contains a `` '', where n is a digit between 1 and 9, then it is replaced in the substitution with the por- tion of string that matched the n-th parenthesized subexpression of exp. Additional backslashes may be used in subSpec to prevent special interpretation of ``&'' or ``'' or `` '' or backslash. The use of backslashes in subSpec tends to interact badly with the Tcl parser's use of backslashes, so it's generally safest to enclose subSpec in braces if it includes backslashes. If the initial arguments to regsub start with - then they are treated as switches. The following switches are currently supported: -all All ranges in string that match exp are found and substitution is performed for each of these ranges. Without this switch only the first matching range is found and substituted. If -all is specified, then ``&'' and `` '' sequences are handled for each substitution using the information from the corresponding match. -expanded Enables use of the expanded regular expression syntax where whitespace and comments are ignored. This is the same as speci- fying the (?x) embedded option (see the re_syntax manual page). -line Enables newline-sensitive matching. By default, newline is a completely ordinary character with no special meaning. With this flag, `[^' bracket expressions and `.' never match newline, `^' matches an empty string after any newline in addition to its normal function, and `$' matches an empty string before any newline in addition to its normal function. This flag is equivalent to specifying both -linestop and -lineanchor, or the (?n) embedded option (see the re_syntax manual page). -linestop Changes the behavior of `[^' bracket expressions and `.' so that they stop at newlines. This is the same as specifying the (?p) embedded option (see the re_syntax manual page). -lineanchor Changes the behavior of `^' and `$' (the ``anchors'') so they match the beginning and end of a line respectively. This is the same as specifying the (?w) embedded option (see the re_syntax manual page). -nocase Upper-case characters in string will be converted to lower-case before matching against exp; however, substitutions specified by subSpec use the original unconverted form of string. -start index Specifies a character index offset into the string to start matching the regular expression at. When using this switch, `^' will not match the beginning of the line, and A will still match the start of the string at index. index will be constrained to the bounds of the input string. -- Marks the end of switches. The argument following this one will be treated as exp even if it starts with a -. If varName is supplied, the command returns a count of the number of matching ranges that were found and replaced, otherwise the string | after replacement is returned.
