Regular Expressions

To be functional, it requires the following things:

Regular expressions are set in preferences, and are used to find document references in text and to parse file names - e.g. if you name your files like:

ABCD-en-003.doc

where "ABCD" is a document reference, or identifier (3-6 uppercase letters), "en" is a two chars language code and "003" is a three digits version code, then you should set your filename parsing regular expression to:

(?P[A-Z]{3,6})-(?P[a-z]{2})-(?P[0-9]{3})

and reference lookup regular expression to

(?P[A-Z]{3,6})(-(?P[a-z]{2}))?(-(?P[0-9]{3}))?

You have to launch oood (available in Nexedi rpm repository and in svn - see HowToUseOood), and give its coordinates (IP and port number) in preferences.
