# RegExp for splitting line contents into pre-char//first word-method//rest.
# For clarity, each group in on one line.

# WARNING: update the regexp if the escapes in interactiveshell are changed, as
# they are hardwired in.

# Although it's not solely driven by the regex, note that:
# ,;/% only trigger if they are the first character on the line
# ! and !! trigger if they are first char(s) *or* follow an indent
# ? triggers as first or last char.
