# Argument-Regex

The `Argument-Regex` option determines if a part of a command is a prompt.

#### Usage

You can configure the `Argument-Regex` by editing the "config.yml" file as follows:

```yaml
# This will determine if
# a part of a command is
# a prompt.
# 
# ONLY CHANGE THE FIRST AND LAST
# I.E (.*?), {.*?}, or [.*?]
Argument-Regex: <.*?>
```

In this example, the argument regex is set to `<.*?>`. Therefore a command with prompts will look like the following:

```
/test <this is a prompt>
```

#### Explanation

The `Argument-Regex` allows you to define a pattern that identifies prompts within a command. By customizing this regex, you can specify how CommandPrompter recognizes and handles command arguments as prompts.

{% hint style="info" %}
To allow for reserved regex tokens like () and \[], CommandPrompter escapes the first and last character of this configuration.
{% endhint %}

#### Example

To modify the argument regex pattern, use the following configuration:

```yaml
Argument-Regex: (.*?)
```

This will set the argument regex to `(.*?)` for identifying command prompts.
