 Hello! Could anybody tell me how to search the following text fragment:    "go * * walk"    where * means just a word of any length.
I guess it's easy but I got a bit puzzled at regular expression syntax.
Thanks!

				Hi Anton,
In your case you may use, for example,
 \w
it's alphanumeric char.
So the final expression for you will be:
Search for:
go \w+ \w+ walk
Where \w+ means one or more alphanumeric chars.

				Many thanks!!! That's pretty easy when you know the answer!
I should have guessed myself.
