Regular Expression to Extract File Paths From A String

[gruntydatsun]

Hello,

If there are any regex experts reading, could I please get to make a regex that will extract valid file paths from a long string full of file paths. The file paths may include spaces.

I am doing a dir of a folder into a variable using the /b switch then I'm trying to extract the file paths, including file names, into an array.

Something like that?

#include <Array.au3>
#include <Constants.au3>
Global $run = Run(@ComSpec & " /c dir /b /a-d ", @SystemDir, @SW_HIDE, $STDOUT_CHILD)
Global $lines
While 1
    $lines &= StdoutRead($run)
    If @error Then ExitLoop
Wend
$aContent = StringSplit(StringStripCR($lines), @LF)
_ArrayDisplay($aContent)

Br,

UEZ

Thanks UEZ. Looks like I was trying to peel a potato with a swiss army knife, instead of a potato peeler.
