Dear Haskellers, I am pleased to announce the regex package, 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 regular expression macros; + a test bench for testing and documenting new macro environments; * built-in support for the TDFA and PCRE back ends; * comprehensive documentation and copious examples. The package is in a review period with the aim of releasing v1.0.0.0 on 2017-03-20. Your feedback is welcome (see http://contact.regex.uk).
