[Tutor] Remove some known text around text I need to keep

[Robert Alexander]

Dear tutors,
thanks a lot for the input. It taught me a few new tricks :)

The OP just forgot to eliminate the closing square bracket in his example.
May he suffer consequences for this oversight! and yes we usually tend to
use parenthesis, whatever their shape, always in pairs, also in this
country ;)

A good day to all of you.

Robert

Hah! You're correct - I read the word "tags". Further, the idea of using
RegEx seemed to support the idea of finding "contents" rather than
trimming a prefix...

In Italian, do parentheses, brackets, braces, etc, not come in pairs?
