Jess doesn't have a regular expression matcher, although this is
something I've contemplated putting in.

You can do what you want by calling out to Java explicitly; for
instance, you could use String.indexOf():

      (defrule list
        (row (name ?s&:(neq -1 (call ?s indexOf "new"))) (value ?b))
        =>
        (printout t "List:"  ?b crlf )) 

I.e., we're testing the Java expression s.indexOf("new") != -1 .
