How to scrub SVGs ?

[omn...@gmail.com]

The aim is to get rid of all SVGs - these are - I suppose the emojs - I tried with

<text.*?>.*?</text> 

from AI, without success.

The svg has

<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" viewBox="0 0 36 36"><path fill="#EDECEC" d="M20.……… … … 4z8z"/></svg>

But 

<svg*?>.*?</svg>

wont do it either.

Any idea how?

So the <svg.*?>.*?</svg> should work to grab tags that are svg. But emoji are considered actual text, so it won't capture them.

Instead, use \p{emoji} to match emoji characters, although it may have some difficulty with flags.

Match flags with \p{emoji}{2}. Still some limitations here, because two emoji next to each other would also match.

However, if you are just removing them, simply find \p{emoji} and replace with "" (nothing) and it should work in most cases.

I'd suggest getting rid of the emoji first, then going after the <svg> tags.
