Hi John, Hi .*,

Given that I have a string 's' from somewhere, I'd like to create a regular expression where some part must match that string. The problem is, the 's' could contain characters that have a special meaning in regular expressions. Is there some support function that can provide an escaped version of 's'? Something that transforms "my.*string" into "my\.\*string"? If there isn't, would it be possible/easy to provide one?

Regards, Daniel
