[back to package description]

regex

Regex is a regular expression toolkit for regex-base with:

  • text-replacement operations with named captures;
  • special datatypes for matches and captures;
  • compile-time checking of RE syntax;
  • a unified means of controlling case-sensitivity and multi-line options;
  • high-level AWK-like tools for building text processing apps;
  • the option of using match operators with reduced polymorphism on the text and/or result types;
  • regular expression macros including:
    • a number of useful RE macros;
    • a test bench for testing and documenting new macro environments;
  • built-in support for the TDFA and PCRE backends;
  • comprehensive documentation and copious examples.

See the About page for details.
