you only want ASCII word characters to count as things that could be in a

True. It could get hairy. Unicode is a pretty vast landscape, and I think
if you only want ASCII word characters to count as things that could be in
a filename, your original [A-Za-z0-9_] is your best bet. Thanks to the

Hi Aaron,
In perlre I read that \w
"
- \w[3] Match a "word" character (alphanumeric plus "_", plus
- other connector punctuation
chars plus Unicode
- marks)
"
So since I didn't know what these 'other' con

Hi All,
I thought I could use a simple regex to match files like this:
1207003PE_GM_09TNPLM2
and ignore files with extensions like this:
1207003PE_GM_09TNPLM2.csv
