[comp.editors] Regular Expressions for Editors ????

ant@mks.com (Anthony Howe) (08/01/90)

I'm looking for papers, books, clues, hints, and examples of how to handle
regular expressions for use in an editor. Something similar to the EMACS
Cookbook would be great or RegExpr 101.

MicroEmacs has regular expression mode, I'm not sure what you're looking
for. There have been some regular expression matchers posted to the net,
if you're looking for examples of how. Look in the grep code, for one.
