in reply to IRC color code stripping

Try something like this (untested): s/\cK\d{1,2}(?:,\d{1,2})?|[\cK\cB\cI\cU\cR\cO]//g

Update: ikegami is right indeed. Try this then: s/\cC\d{1,2}(?:,\d{1,2})?|[\cC\cB\cI\cU\cR\cO]//g

    \cK should be \cC (at least for mIRC and ircle). Ctrl-K is the shortcut key used to insert colour, but Ctrl-C is the code that is actually inserted.
