[Chicken-users] adding a "standard" regexp engine?

[felix winkelmann]

A general question to all list members:

The multiude of regex engines is both a pain for building and
using chicken, as the regex-flavors are never quite the same
and handling the different cases gets tedious quickly.

What do others think about adding one regex library for
alll platforms? It must be BSD licensed. Currently there
are two candidates which look interesting:

- PCRE
- Oniguruma (very powerful, but also very big)


cheers,
