Regex

Apply regex and that.

Description

Allows you to run regex replaces on both your own and others messages. One may run a regex on their own last message like so:

> user: I like turtles
> user: s/turtles/pizza/

One may run a regex on another user’s last message simple by hilighting the nick before the pattern:

> batman: I like TURTLES
> user: batman: s/turtles/pizza/i

Note: As this is JS regex, the second part of the regex is actually just a string and therefore some regex features aren’t available (such as lookaheads). On a related note, the regex flags available for use are limited to i and g.
