That was interesting. I found that Tim Shen exposed his work on
<regex> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N_rkHzhXueo.
When it comes to conversion from expressions to automaton, I’m
a big fan of Brzozozski’s derivatives, that, in addition, easily
supported complement and intersection. No idea about group
captures, and certainly not backward references.
redgrep implements this approach. This talks touches the case
of capturing groups.
