Description Marco Barisione 2006-07-22 17:44:12 UTC 
I propose to add a wrapper around PCRE to glib, this should be a separated libgregex library to mantain the core libglib as small as possible.

The relevant thread in gtk-devel-list is archived at http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2006-July/thread.html#00099

The source code in at http://techn.ocracy.org/eggregex/, a copy of the documentation is at http://www.barisione.org/eggregex/.

The code is based (with many modifications) on EggRegex from the libegg module.

(eg)gregex needs to know the script of a gunichar to allow \p{script-name} in patterns.
