Regular Expressions: Exceptions in a Character Set (Unix Power Tools, 3rd Edition)
32.9. Regular Expressions: Exceptions in a Character Set
You can
easily search for all characters except those in square
brackets by putting a caret (^) as the first
character after the left square bracket ([). To
match all characters except lowercase vowels, use

an anchor, the right square bracket (]) and dash
(-) do not have a special meaning if they directly
follow a [. Table 32-2 has some
examples.

\W matches anything
but a word character. See the
perlre(1) manual page for more details.
