Super easy to do, apparently. Match using regex below.

/\\u+[a-fA-F\d]{4}/
  • Java doesn't support Unicode escapes above the 16 bit range (i.e., escapes that require 5 or more hex digits), and uses surrogate pairs instead. Hence, we need only match exactly 4 hex digits.
  • Multiple us are supported. This is for code that has been ASCII-fied so that escape sequences in the original UTF-X encoded files can be indicated (they start with \uu; newly-escaped characters will be \u in the ASCII-converted source).
