| Description |
Updated on 7 Jun 2005 --
Matches major credit cards including: Visa (length 16, prefix 4); Mastercard (length 16, prefix 51-55); Diners Club/Carte Blanche (length 14, prefix 36, 38, or 300-305); Discover (length 16, prefix 6011); American Express (length 15, prefix 34 or 37). Saves the card type as a named group to facilitate further validation against a "card type" checkbox in a program. All 16 digit formats are grouped 4-4-4-4 with an optional hyphen or space between each group of 4 digits. The American Express format is grouped 4-6-5 with an optional hyphen or space between each group of digits. Formatting characters must be consistant, i.e. if two groups are separated by a hyphen, all groups must be separated by a hyphen for a match to occur. |

Regular expressions are supported with most versin of GNU Unix tools, but I have yet to find one that will accept this expression. The error I get from most of them is "Invalid back reference"
I've tried grep -e <stuff supplied above> <filename> as well as grep -e "<stuff supplied above>" <filename> and have had zero success.
