Issue 569 in xmonad: GenerateManpage regex issue

Status: New Owner: ---- New issue 569 by pashev.i...@gmail.com: GenerateManpage regex issue http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=569 util/GenerateManpage.hs uses "xK_(\\w+)" which cannot work on some platforms, e. g. illumos (opensolaris). It even does not work if Text.Regex.Posix is built with bundled regex sources (like on windows). I suggest to use "xK_([[:alnum:]]+)" instead.

Comment #1 on issue 569 by daniel.w...@gmail.com: GenerateManpage regex issue http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=569 Patch attached (but untested); it changes \w to [_[:alnum:]] rather than [[:alnum:]] as the man page for grep suggests that this is what \w is really a shortcut for.
