What you tried wouldn't work in Perl either. Try
\$gamestatscache{\$[[:alpha:]]+}{
or
\$gamestatscache{\$[a-z]+}{
Thanks, I know that Perl syntax is different ;)
I keep forgetting that [:alpha:]+ does not work in TextPad as one might expect but that they are character class operators only ...

regex unexpected match of multiple chars in { brackets }
Consider these two lines of code:
$gamestatscache{$player}{$svariant}{wins} = 0;
$gamestatscache{$player}{$svariant}{losses} = 0;
In Textpad 5.4.2 I want to match the "$gamestatscache{$player}{" part which did not work. To simplify the problem I tried to match "$gamestatscache{$player" with ...
$gamestatscache{$player}{$svariant}{wins} = 0;
$gamestatscache{$player}{$svariant}{losses} = 0;
