Does not support special Unicode notation or advanced regex syntax.

Post by Debugger »

I want the regex to match the song titles and artists inside the brackets, taking into account the Unicode brackets. However, the editor or Everything I am using does not support special Unicode notation or advanced regex syntax. :|

Regex is good (BUT NOT UNIVERSAL), it still needs improvement all the time!

([^\(\s]+)\(([^)]+?)(?:\s|$)


please help how to add this UNICODE "BRACKET" to include string in names

UNICODE:
(

U+0028
UTF-8: 0x28
LEFT PARENTHESIS
Unicode Script: Zyyy (Common)
Unicode General Category: Ps (Open Punctuation)
File position: 14 159 bytes

Not work:
([^\(\x28\s]+)\(([^)]+?)(?:\s|$)


You should also add an enhancement to the expression to include the entire song title and not just part of it: e.g. Pizza Boys - Oh Le Le(xxDjxx
