Regexp using Netbeans:

Question

I would like to make the following find and replace:

// input
'key1': 1 
'key2': 2 

// output
key1: 1 
key2: 2

the find should be like this pattern '\w{1,}':
what about the replace with pattern?

@Raze2dust it doesnt matter the language, the OP wants to use the find/replace feature in netbeans... — Naftali

This should remove the quotes from the keys:

Find: '(.+)':

Replace: $1

That doesn't seem to work. The Replace button seems to be disabled when I try that and $1 is in red

Weird. I tried it and it worked fine for me. I'm on 7.1. Was anything found in the find?

yea, I am testing it in one of my files on Netbeans 7.0.1

Does anything get found when you use Previous and Next? Do you have any text selected?

I don't have a previous and next. this is what I see: i.sstatic.net/6f779.png
