Regex SyntaxΒΆ

The library supports most of the PCRE syntax with a few exceptions:

  • atomic groups
  • boundaries other than ^$
  • callouts
  • character properties
  • comments
  • conditional patterns
  • control characters (\cX)
  • horizontal / vertical character classes (\h\H\v\V)
  • match point reset (\K)
  • named characters
  • octal numbers
  • options / modes
  • subroutines
  • unicode grapheme cluster (\X)
