I'm trying to use:
x=prxchange('s/\(*[^)]\)//',1,x);
to remove text between two parens (including removing the parens) from a string. However, this isn't working completely. If the string is: "this is a test (hello world)", i'm getting "this is a test (hello world".
What's the right regex to use to accomplish this?
Try:
x=prxchange('s/\(.*\)//',1,x);
cheers
