Thanks Ravinder,

I generally use various online REGEX checkers when when I am writing REGEX expressions, mostly REGEX for PHP code.

This is the first one I have seen that has the "visualization" done like this, thanks for sharing.

The REGEX checkers I like the best have always been the ones where we can cut-and-paste our text into the checker and then see
the resulting matches so we can easily test the input versus the output when debugging.

Next time I need a REGEX I will also try this visualization tool.

Thanks for sharing.

BB-FINDHOST.CGI(1)					      General Commands Manual						BB-FINDHOST.CGI(1)

NAME
bb-findhost.cgi - Xymon CGI script to find hosts SYNOPSIS
bb-findhost.cgi?host=REGEX DESCRIPTION
bb-findhost.cgi is invoked as a CGI script via the bb-findhost.sh CGI wrapper. bb-findhost.cgi is passed a QUERY_STRING environment variable with the "host=REGEX" parameter. The REGEX is a Posix regular expression (see regex(7) ) describing the hostnames to look for. A trailing wildcard is assumed on all hostnames - e.g. requesting the hostname "www" will match any host whose name begins with "www". It then produces a single web page, listing all of the hosts that matched any of the hostnames, with links to the Xymon webpages where they are located. The output page lists hosts in the order they appear in the bb-hosts(5) file. A sample web page implementing the search facility is included with bbgen, you access it via the URL /bb/help/bb-findhost.html. OPTIONS
--env=FILENAME Loads the environment from FILENAME before executing the CGI. FILES
$BBHOME/web/findhost_header HTML header file for the generated web page $BBHOME/web/findhost_footer HTML footer file for the generated web page $BBHOME/web/findhost_form Query form displayed when bb-findhost.cgi is called with no parameters. ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
BBHOSTS bb-findhost.cgi uses the BBHOSTS environment variable to find the bb-hosts file listing all known hosts and their page locations. BBHOME Used to locate the template files for the generated web pages. SEE ALSO
bbgen(1), bb-hosts(5), hobbitserver.cfg(5) Xymon Version 4.2.3: 4 Feb 2009 BB-FINDHOST.CGI(1)
