Hello,
I am trying to use grep to locate multiple uses of the same word in the same line. The word has to be 3+ char, upper or lower or both.
I tried this code
<code>
grep \([A-Za-z]{3,}\)*\1 i*
</code>
and i turned out zero results. Any ideas?

Also this is another problem that i have no idea where to start.
We can use regular expression search
and replace tools (such as that provided by emacs) as a powerful tool for reorganizing data in a file. If you look at the file attached to this topic, you will see that it has the format:
TIME NAME COMMENT
Use search and replace tools to transform this into the following format:
[TIME] ***NAME*** COMMENT
In addition, convert all text of the form *text* to _text_, making sure not to delete single * 's.
~Thank Everyone
