find and replace regex for reformatting the value

Question

I have a text like :value_subvalue that I want to transform to :value[:subvalue].

I have a find & replace field in Coda where I can enter a regex to find and replace.

Any idea how to do this?

Can you post a big piece of text that imitates the text that you want to work on? Otherwise, the regex may not work for you. — nhahtdh

@Bohemian: I'm guessing PCRE (or subset of it). From my search Coda is a text editor. — nhahtdh

You haven't said what language, so this is a generic answer:

If you're doing this in java, the group refs would be $1 and $2
