Hi,

Suppose that I have strings like the following

test(a b)a b
test(xy uv)xy uv
...

I want to change them to

test(a)a test(b)b
test(xy)xy test(uv)uv
...


The problem is that I don't know how to capture pattern that repeat
itself (like 'a' and 'xy' in the example). I could use 'test\((\w+)
(\w+)\)(\w) (\w)', but it will capture something like 'test(a b)x y',
which I don't want to.

I'm wondering if there is way to capture recurring patterns.
