## DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the **eric3-re** command. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

**eric3-re** is a graphical editor and debugger for Python style regular expressions (using the Python re module). It has support for all of Python's own syntax extensions like named groups. This program is a part of the eric3 IDE but can be used as a standalone application as well.
