Subj: Perl, etc has these "?"-prefix modifiers/codes/whatever.
Precisely which does emacs have (and NOT have)?
Please, someone, make an ascii or html table or even plain text
list of all these neat "new" non-standard ops that perl and
even php and ruby etc seem to have now, comparing them
to what Emacs has or don't have.
Also point to any .el-files that upgrade that stuff.
---
Friedl's book "Mastering Regular Expresisions", both editions,
covered Emacs re its regexp ability. Very Nice!
Now there's A NEW REGEXP BOOK (also O'Reilly) a "COOKBOOK" on regexps,
and covers, with examples and also pointed-out differences --
for a whole bunch of systems: perl, php, ruby, ... <I forget, but there's
a bunch of them>, but does NOT (DAMNIT!) even MENTION emacs!
Note: the credits say thanks to Friedl (maybe also Ilya, I
forget) for suggestions on the various drafts.
So you see a nifty regexp in that book, and you want to try
it in emacs --- what a bear, trying to convert it into
something that emacs understands.
What say, some guru in emacs regexps? (Ilya? Friedl? ...)
Thanks!
David
