extract text hello!
my goal is to extract specific text from a text file I search for a specific regex, I want to select all the matches of this regex, then I want to reverse selection and delete that selection, so that only the regex matches will be left can you tell me please how to do this (particularly the "select all" and "reverse selection" parts) or a better way to do it thanks! |
