@Alexander Jones: no new syntax is needed to implement what you want; we already have Template Strings. For example, you could define a new function `RegExp.join` (which takes either an array or a string as its first argument, see below):
``` var pattern = RegExp.join`^(abc${ "someString, escaped" }|def${ /a reg|exp/ })$` // apply flags? var pattern = RegExp.join('x')` abc | def \$`; ``` `RegExp.escape()` would be used internally to handle the interpolation of an string into the regexp. But these features are orthogonal. --scott On Fri, Jun 12, 2015 at 2:57 PM, Juriy Zaytsev <kan...@gmail.com> wrote: > I made this gist back in the days — https://gist.github.com/kangax/9698100 > — and I believe Rick was going to bring it up at one of the meetings.
