I quite like the Regex Coach:  http://www.weitz.de/regex-coach/

The Linux one isn't too good (it's almost the same, but slower).  We use the
Windows one in our courses.  It allows you to build regular expressions and see
how they match your sample data, as well as walk through as it attempts to match
your data so you can see where your expression might be going wrong.

all the best,
