Due to popular demand I (finally) got around to updating my Regular Expression Assembly Builder Tool.  If you're not familiar with it, you can read more about it and its history here and here, but suffice it to say, it's a handy little utility that compiles regular expressions into their own assembly (dll).  There is a lot of power behind this, not the least of which is that you can effectively pre-compile your regular expressions for your application and gain some performance improvements.  You can read more about it in my aforementioned posts.

The updates to the utility include the following:

• NEW: Upgraded to version 2.0.0.0.
• NEW: Upgraded to VS.NET 2008, .NET 3.5.
• UPD: Added resizability to regex dialog, supporting a larger text field for regex entry, line breaks, tabs (with a tabstop of 3), etc.
• NEW: Added scrollability to editor panels rather than not at all.
• NEW: Added support for a command-line-specified DLL to load.
• NEW: Added support for hierarchical (namespace) representation of regular expressions.
• UPD: Context menus add regular expressions to the hierarchy based on the user's selection.
• FIX: Fixed issue involving the various RegexOptions checkboxes where an invalid configuration of options could be selected (particularly involving ECMAScript, Multiline, and Singleline.

So, apart from some nicer UI interactions than in previous versions, this version most notably includes

1. Organization of your regular expressions my namespace.
2. Alphabetical listing of regular expressions.
3. The ability to provide an argument on the command-line designating the DLL to load.

Let me know what you like and/or don't like about it and I'll see what I can do to improve it for you!
