Like Gert said, I think you inadvertently made a typo there. You might
want to compare that file against the original:

https://github.com/interchange/interchange/blob/master/dist/strap/config/ncheck_category.tag

It won't change after makecat setup, but you can change it once it is
installed to the code/template_tag/.../ path.

No space, just [A-Z0-9], which is regex syntax for capital A-Z or
numeric 0-9.
