ElMiko · 03-25-2013, 02:03 PM

I'm trying to correct, in bulk, omissions of apostrophes, such as: Im, cant, wont, couldnt.

Is there a way to match the non-space between "t" and the penultimate letter so i can simple insert an apostrophe as a replace value?

basically, i'm looking for the functional equivalent of:

Code:

(?<=\bI)[non-space, non-character](?=m\b)
