Here is a really cool tutorial (video) and cheatsheet for learning regular expressions:
http://e-texteditor....expressions_tutorial
This was a tremendous help for me when I started out trying to learn how to use regexes (for use when programming in ruby), and since then I have found more and more use for them.
The editor e ( http://e-texteditor.com ), that is used in the tutorial, is probably what has helped me most keeping my regex ability up-to-date and in use daily. It has a cool way of live highlighting what your regex matches in the text as you type it, that really helps you out when you try to use regexes while editing (kind of like a realtime regexbuddy that is always there when you need it).
