## Regular expression support for Nimrod. Consider using the pegs module
## instead.
## Currently this module is implemented by providing a wrapper around the
## `PRCE (Perl-Compatible Regular Expressions) <http://www.pcre.org>`_
## C library. This means that your application will depend on the PRCE
## library's licence when using this module, which should not be a problem
## though.
## PRCE's licence follows:
