Metacharacters again...

[Aran]

If there is one topic that completely perplexes me, it would be Metacharacters. On this topic I know only that they are used to do stuff to strings of code.

But how do you use them?
What type of results can you get by using them? Or, what's the point in using them?

They're used with RegExp, search a tutorial by me on the Creation Asylum, it's called "Auto Colored Words", you can see how it works.
