Regular expression plug-in for Sublime Text

 I often need to look at logs. I needed a way to quickly highlight different parts of the logs. I created a plugin for Sublime Text to do that. 

  Here are instructions to create a plugins. 

  Here is my plugin:

	import sublime
	import sublime_plugin
	class ReggaeCommand(sublime_plugin.TextCommand):
	def run(self, edit, pattern_args):
	p = 0
	colours = ["region.cyanish", "region.orangish", "region.bluish"]
	icons = ["dot", "circle"]
	for pattern_arg in pattern_args:
	region_key = 'regexreg'+str(p)
	regionst = self.view.get_regions(region_key)
	if regionst:
	self.view.erase_regions(region_key)
	regions = self.view.find_all(pattern_arg)
	self.view.add_regions(region_key, regions, colours[p % len(colours)], icons[p % len(icons)], sublime.DRAW_STIPPLED_UNDERLINE)
	p = p + 1
