Hey @wvpv, is there any way to replace all occurrences with RegExMatch? this is only replacing the first occurrence.

The last example replaces all instances. Here's an updated string that illustrates it: https://mcsnippets.herokuapp.com/s/P8FlARhL

Actually, I want to replace all even or odd occurrences in a string with *(asterisk).

e.g
input: Testing Text
output: T*s*i*g T*x*

I came up with this regex: (?<!^(?:\S\S|\s\S|\S\s)*).

but the RegExMatch only replaces the first occurrence e.g T*sting Text

Here you can see It's working: https://regex101.com/r/mXKvqn/1
It's not working with RegExMatch: https://mcsnippets.herokuapp.com/s/6LXtg4Y3

Why bend your mind with a regex when you can use a loop and the mod function to detect odd/even?

Yeah looks great, Thanks Adam.
