Its current version is 0.8.5 and its last update was on 10/11/2006. It's available for users with the operating system Windows 98 and previous versions, and it is available in English.

The Regex Coach is a graphical application for Linux and Windows which can be used to experiment with (Perl-compatible) regular expressions interactively. The application contains the following features:

  • It shows whether a regular expression matches a particular target string
  • It can also show which parts of the target string correspond to captured register groups or to arbitrary parts of the regular expression
  • It can "walk" through the target string one match at a time
  • It can simulate Perl's split and s/// (substitution) operators
  • It tries to describe the regular expression in plain English
  • It can show a graphical representation of the regular expression's parse tree
  • It can single-step through the matching process as performed by the regex engine
  • Everything happens in "real time", i.e. as soon as you make a change somewhere in the application all other parts are instantly updated
