Cool! Looking at HTests, I guess that the list of substrings returned corresponds to the brackets in the regexp? Is the darcs subdirectory just there for version control? #g -- At 03:58 26/10/04 +0100, Ian Lynagh wrote:

Hi all,

I've written a simple regexp library for POSIX EREs, with a similar interface to Text.Regex.

Benefits over Text.Regex include:

Works in nhc98

Laziness: RE> match "^a" ('a':error "Foo") Just []

Could easily be altered for regexps on lists of other datatypes

Missing features:

Text.Regex's matchRegexAll (should be simple to add)

[[=a=]] and [[.ch.]] (don't plan to add these)

I haven't looked at cabalising it or anything yet. It can be downloaded from http://urchin.earth.li/~ian/re-0.0.1.tar.gz or darcs get http://urchin.earth.li/darcs/ian/regexp

Thanks Ian
