FWIW, I work with another app (completely unrelated to guile) that uses basic, simple, straightforeward regexp's from the C library. Initial feedback from windows users seems to be that the windows world has no f**ing idea of what a regexp is; its not in windows, its not supported by Microsoft. Somewhere, there's some port of (gnu?) regexp libs to windows, but rank-n-file windows programmers that I deal with don't seem to know how to download/compile/build/install such things. You may have better luck with this; I don't know how to code on windows, so I punted. --linas
