thanks.

But could you explain me what is that command? I wanted to learn it Laughing

^ [A-Z]+ $

in this case:

^ - beginning of string
$ - end of string
[A-Z] - set of chars
+ - previous char/set of chars could occur one or more times

Its rly weird.
Better go and study some good tutorial Smile

Personally, I don't find regular expressions that weird, just a little overwhelming when you deal with them for the first time.

Have a look at the "Regular expression syntax" manpage. I believe you'll find it helpful when dealing with regular expressions. Another good resource would be http://www.regular-expressions.info/tutorial.html
