Printing instructions are on the home page.

Yeah, I messed that up late last night. Fixed!

shreyasminocha | 5 years ago | on: Show HN: RegEx for Regular Folk – A visual, example-based introduction

Fixed it! Thanks.

shreyasminocha | 5 years ago | on: Show HN: RegEx for Regular Folk – A visual, example-based introduction

Yep! Sorry, I broke that late last night. I've fixed it with https://github.com/shreyasminocha/regex-for-regular-folk/com....

It was fairly unintuitive for someone unfamiliar with the source, so no worries :D

> is there a simple way to get this on one a single page and make it easier to print?

That's on my TODO!

I was having some trouble with wkhtmltopdf, but I'll try to figure this out ASAP.

He does require it per CC-BY-NC-2.5. I felt it was sufficient to permalink to the version on his domain, but I shall make it more explicit.

> The highlighting of matches is slightly shifted to the left … Can I suggest adding Firefox to your test regimen, if you haven't already? :)

Oh, I thought I had fixed that. I primarily test with Firefox, so this is a bit of a surprise. I'll check it out—I think it's something to do with CSS's `letter-spacing`.

I've fixed the typo, thanks for pointing it out.

Thanks for the comments!

shreyasminocha | 5 years ago | on: Show HN: RegEx for Regular Folk – A visual, example-based introduction

Thanks. Yeah, others pointed this out too. I'll get to it soon!

Point. I've made the temporary omission of an explanation for /g explicit. I've also included a link to the relevant section of Flags in the note.

Very odd, no idea. Perhaps because the certificate is just a few days old?

shreyasminocha | 5 years ago | on: Show HN: RegEx for Regular Folk – A visual, example-based introduction

Me too! There are links to RegExr next to each example. Glad they have query string support.

shreyasminocha | 5 years ago | on: Show HN: RegEx for Regular Folk – A visual, example-based introduction

The examples are linked to RegExr! There's a link titled `[RegExr]` in blue next to each example.

Also, those are some amazing resources, especially CyberChef.

shreyasminocha | 5 years ago | on: Show HN: RegEx for Regular Folk – A visual, example-based introduction

Yes, it must appear immediately after `[`

shreyasminocha | 5 years ago | on: Show HN: RegEx for Regular Folk – A visual, example-based introduction

Valid points. I agree.

I'll try easing the curve, especially early on and make clearer the intended audience.

shreyasminocha | 5 years ago | on: Show HN: RegEx for Regular Folk – A visual, example-based introduction

Yep, thanks for pointing that out. I was finding it tricky to present features in isolation without making the examples trivial.

I'll work on making things clearer.

shreyasminocha | 5 years ago | on: Show HN: RegEx for Regular Folk – A visual, example-based introduction

Yep! I included it on the next steps page — https://refrf.shreyasminocha.me/chapters/next-steps. Great fun.

shreyasminocha | 5 years ago | on: Show HN: RegEx for Regular Folk – A visual, example-based introduction

Makes sense—thank you! I'll add that in.
