Can you give me some examples of POSIX 1003.2 'extended' regular

expressions? What are the parameters/commands?

Is it "and", "or", "not", "equal", "not equal", anything else?

Is there a good reference website where I can obtain more information?

Thanks

Jane,

the ultimate source for information about regular expressions is a book:

Mastering Regular Expressions by Jeffrey E. F. Freidl (published by O'Reilly

& Associates, Inc.).

Friedl's book serves both as an extremely detailed tutorial and as an

extremely detailed reference work on regular expression syntax.

For introductionary (and sometimes deeper) information about regular

expressions, you might take a look a these links (just four of many

thousands available on the web):
