      We can add _and then the underscore works

      There's no need to scape underscore. Then the regex is ^[][()\ \'_A-Za-z0-9-]+$

        Hi

        Really nice idea ! Thanks

        Suggestion :
        Instead of using if/else, just sanitize the string with the regex used in the if:
        sline=${$line//^[][()\ '_A-Za-z0-9-]/}

          Can we discuss the RegEx things on the bash script thread?
          It's a very powerfull feature indeed ;)

          @w0lv3r1nix
          Well that's also a suggestions there a many ways to skin a cat ;)
          As I'm still learning I'm thankfull for every little bash lesson.
          But I think the if/else clause is easier for code readings and beginners like me.
          See if you stumple after years on your piece of code.... you would ask... what was my intentions there.

          With if you have a expression with a clear result ... no if without then and maybe an else >> good result ;)

              Just a small (bad) joke:

              CR
