The Regex Coach
I am writing a lot of regex these days for a spam plugin I wrote and it seems I am a bit rusty or simply just blind. Remembered Barry mentioned some tool ages ago that visually test them a little bit of Googling on his site found it.
I can also recommend this as a very good tool for debugging complex regular expressions.
