Attempting to distinguish read-only vs non in Custom Document Well with Reg. Ex
Custom Document Well with Productivity Power Tools for Visual Studio 2017 comes with the ability to change the color of tabs according to Project and/or something they call Reg. Ex.
To my understanding this is just ordinary regular expression but out of the box they have a tag, or something, they call [read only]. Something I can't find any documentation about anywhere, or anyone attempting to do anything with? One of the default Reg. Ex.'s look like this:
.*.(cpp|c|hpp|h)[ ]*([read only])?$
I thought that meant that there is some functionality for checking if the actual file is read only or not, but I can't for my life figure out how to do that, this is what I've tried so far:
.*.(cpp|c|)
.*.(h|hpp)[ ]*([])?$
.*.(h|hpp)[ ]*([writable])?$
But the Read Only always seem to take precedence.
What I want to achieve is have different colors on my tabs depending on the read only state of the file, and I only want this because I saw the read-only flag in the reg-ex.

What are you trying to do? If the default regex is executed first and it matches, your patterns won't be even tried.

The thing is it shouldn't match since the file isn't read-only. I just assumed that the Document Well had some extended functionality of RegEx where you have this read-only state available. And for your second question: "What I want to achieve is have different colors on my tabs depending on the read only state of the file"
